The wording used makes it hard to know whether it is supposed to work or not

It supposed to work (at least ```nixpkgs``` already has ```scaleway-c1``` among ```platform```s). But it does not work with recent kernels. It seems that the kernel should be compiled with different options. This requires further investigations, comparing config of the Debian's kernel with NixOS's, etc Volth (talk) 23:42, 2 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, I'm investigating booting a C1 scaleway host right now, I'll update the page with the current status. --samueldr (talk) 23:59, 2 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Also NixOS on Sceleway ARM64 is blocked by inability to boot those servers (actually KVM virtual machines on 96-core Cavium) with custom kernel https://github.com/scaleway/initrd/issues/186 Volth (talk) 02:17, 4 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
