- chungy 7y agoSeems to be only i686 and x86_64. It's a pretty small project all things considered, but I'm sure a porting effort would be appreciated.
- tremon 7y agofrom the article (default blurb added to the end of every blog post): it can be used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686, x86_64, ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.
- Fnoord 7y agoFTA: > The Guix development branch we just merged introduces a reduced binary seed bootstrap for x86_64 and i686
- kragen 7y agoIt isn't necessary for the original bootstrap seed to run on many platforms. Just at least one trustworthy one. From there we can cross-compile everything else.
- xvilka 7y agoAnd x86 is the least trustworthy one. With all these hidden modes of execution from Intel and AMD...
- equalunique 7y agoThe first step would be getting Mes[0] built for RISC-V / OpenPOWER. Want to give it a shot and let Guix devs know how it went? [0] https://www.gnu.org/software/mes/ https://www.gnu.org/software/mes/
