  1. So now I can boot straight into a barebones GNU Guix system on my StarFive VisionFIve 2 RISC-V board from a MicroSD card. I had to patch "gnu/bootloader/u-boot.scm" in Guix to make this work:
    codeberg.org/avp/guix/src/bran

    No success with eMMC yet; it would be nice to create an image that works with eMMC as well.

  2. So since the irradium #Crux #Linux derivate on my #VisionFive2 was broken (didn't boot anymore without any errors, just froze) and I never liked this distro anyway I was looking for alternatives... and for some reason the @netbsd generic "qemu" image... just booted and installed out of the box xD

  3. Took a fair bit of mucking about (mainly because I haven't updated the firmware in a year), but I finally got #openbsd76 running on my #starfive #visionfive2 .

  8. Almost done porting to our first target, a so cool 😎

    Main laptop: #LinuxMint
    Old T430: #NetBSD
    #VisionFive2 : irradium (a CRUX Linux derivative for #riscv )
    #raspberrypi3 runs openSUSE Tumbleweed
    #raspberrypi5 runs Raspberry Pi OS (debian)
    Pine A64 also runs #NetBSD like my T430

  10. Since a friend of mine has access to a free of charge 3D printer, courtesy of the German tax payer (us), I got myself a nice case printed for the #VisionFive2 .
    Have to add some active cooling on top which will make it look less cool, but otherwise it's running at around 58°C with just the passive cooler and over 65 when under load.

  11. The Firmware update on my #VisionFive2 worked really well actually. I didn't adjust the version strings though so the openSBI now shows the board and build date instead of 1.4 or w/e the latest but it's fine.
    Now let's hope Amazon delivers the new SD cards and if they work I can finally continue to dabble around with other systems but the standard #debian image 😅🙏🏻

  12. Booth presenting open technologies at #LinuxDays 2023. uLAN project https://ulan.sourceforge.net/ used in PiKRON's instruments, agriculture and even in home automation prototype at CTU, full presentation of its 30-years in use https://ulan.sourceforge.net/pdf/ulan-linuxdays23-slides.pdf . The #QtRvSim, RISC-V simulator has been presented as well. #pysimCoder generated code controls motor on #MZ_APO educational kit designed for CTU courses. Open motion base board for Teensy-4.1 is on the right, same as #VisionFive2.

  13. Just got my #VisionFive2 #RISCV debugger setup for #NetBSD kernel debugging ready...

    I'm now using #openocd, because I wasn't able to convince the GDBServer of #jlink to debug the right core.

    Not sure what I can do at that level, because NetBSD and a VisionFive 2 obviously is a hell lot more complex than my own projects on a ESP32-C3. 😆

    Guess I need to improve my knowledge of the RISC-V ISA first... 🤓

    But I'm open for ideas how to continue...
