The derivation builds and was tested on the device, but lacks crust (power management) as tracked in #240846 as i wasn't able to figure out how to get the OpenRISC compiler, but it doesn't affects the use of Nix just makes sleep and hibernation unreliable and annoying.

Seems that noise in my eMMC from armbian made it seem like the contribution works, but it doesn't, Investigating now..

Updates:

• [02/07/2023 - 02:36:40] The contribution builds and installs without an issue, but the device doesn't have working display (confirmed via serial console)
• [02/07/2023 - 03:05:49] Confirmed that the display works and is connected to the PCB
• [02/07/2023 - 03:05:49] The NixOS 23.05 channel is using kernel with broken mesa, see https://www.armbian.com/olimex-teres-a64 for details

Conclusion: Known issue with broken kernel, concluded that it's a userland issue that doesn't affect this contribution.

If possible the build should fail if attempted to build on Linux 6.1.X
