Hi all, I'm trying to get NixOS running on a Raspberry Pi 3 but ran into an issue with an outdated Nix
I used the first image linked at https://nixos.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi and after putting the latest firmware from https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-firmware (including kernel7.img) on the boot partition, I was able to boot into NixOS. I did a nix-channel --update, but when I tried to install some packages I got an error about Nixpkgs needing Nix >= 1.10 and the image appears to only have Nix 1.5.1 The links given were broken when I tried, and it says to contact the email list if you're on ARM: https://nixos.org/wiki/How_to_update_when_Nix_is_too_old_to_evaluate_Nixpkgs What's the best way to get a more current version of Nix installed? As another, more general question, if I have another ARM install with toolchain available (say, Archlinux) is there a way to leverage that to build a Nix package that could be used/installed by another ARM install (NixOS)?
