The port still requires Rockchip=E2=80=99s firmware blobs, however, as Rockchip has y= et to release the ARM Trusted Firmware sources for the RK3566 and RK3568. At the same time, pgwipeout has begun tinkering with mainline u-boot. Albeit there is some manual hackery and binary blobs involved, he managed to get mainline u-boot running.=E2=80=9C Does this mean that it's not possible to boot the Quartz64 / RK3566 board with purely free software, as long as Rockchip does not release the ARM trusted firmware sources?=20 > I can tell the board now boots and the Sway session over HDMI works. > Before a month ago I was only able to get SSH connection. > > Please follow the instructions in section on installing Guix [3]. Well, I don't think that the normal installation procedure will work. Especially, GRUB as bootloader won't work, I think. > Not sure how difficult it would be to run full Guix System there atm. > Currently I focus more on the PinePhone and Pinebook Pro. Instead, one will need to use u-boot as bootloader. Namely a special version of u-boot with a patch. The installation instructions for Arch Linux on Quartz64 suggest to use this [1] u-boot-fork which is continuously built at [2]. But during this build-process, they use[3] non-free blobs from the manufacturer Rockchip, located at [4]. All in all, I think Guix System can't officially run on the RK3566 board as long as non-free blobs are needed for u-boot to function. Until then, non-official, non-free, non-GNU, non-Guix communities would need to package this u-boot fork (and maybe even this [5] modified/patched Linux-kernel).
