I am a bit confused here, it seems like there is a lot of valueable information, but it hard to follow. Can someone help me clear it up, please?

About which image to use it says:

First follow the generic installation steps to get the installer image and install using the installation and configuration steps. (Link to https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM#Installation which itself links to https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/release-20.03/nixos.sd_image.aarch64-linux) Until the generic image works, a temporary device-specific image is build on Hydra. Note that this image is not using u-boot, but rather the Raspberry Pi specific bootloader configuration. (Link to https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/trunk-combined/nixos.sd_image_raspberrypi4.aarch64-linux)

Only the later link gave me an image that would boot on my RP4(4GB)

There is also this line: "These configurations will boot (from this PR comment):" But then no configurations do follow.
