Hi Guixers,


I'd like to donate this used machine [1] to the guix project. Is there 
any interest and when yes can I advice the seller to send the machine 
directly to the build farm hoster?

Thanks for the great project.


Kind regards,

Reza

I used to host one of them (or was it another kind of overdrive?). Now that I moved to a new place where I should stay for a while, I should be able host one again, if needed :)

My German is not too great. Does it come with disks and USB cable? What's its condition overall? Will it die after a few weeks? :D

Hi Julien

The seller said it is in excellent condition. It has an 1TB HDD 
included, but about the cables I am not sure.

Can I advice the seller to send it to you then?

Cheers,

Reza

I'd wait for the maintainers to say whether they are interested. If so, I'm happy to host the machine unless the maintainers prefer not to let me :)

Thanks for the donation offer btw!

Hello Julien and Reza,

Thanks for the donation! We already have two Overdrive 1000 connected to
the build farm behind ci.guix.gnu.org (overdrive1 and dover
machines). Adding an extra one, and have it hosted at your place Julien
would be great :).

You can then follow the procedure described here:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/tree/doc/cuirass.org,
to add it to the build farm. I will be happy to help you, if needed at
that time.

Mathieu
