My biggest blog post yet, and it’s about running (almost) vanilla NixOS on a (formerly) Android phone! This was 50% fun and 50% exhausting… you solve one issue and another one crops up right away… it was certainly an interesting educational experience.

I’m not explaining any basic technical concepts here, as I’m not a complete noob in phone ROMs and Linux.

Ask me any questions if you have them!

    Jesus fucking christ this is a hell of a project, Ill finish reading when I get home today.

    Hats off to you for pulling it off. Why is it that every time I read something by a NixOS person I get the inpressiom that they are very smart but are completely mad.
