bug#59196: `guix pull` fails on A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-eMMC

[Tanguy LE CARROUR]

Dear Guix,

I decided to try to install Guix System on my A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-eMMC.
I used the latest Armbian as a base system. I APT-installed Guix and
tried to `guix pull`, but it failed with the following message:

```shell

Hi,

Does it also fails with 'guix pull -M 1 -c 1' ?

Hi Denis,

Thanks for your answer.

Strange thing, though… I didn't received your answer!?
I came across it by chance while checking

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately, I get the same kind of error:

I'll try on a brand new SD card, because the one I used is a bit old.

Any other ideas about what might have gone wrong?

The command I gave sometimes works on 32bit machines with a low
amount of RAM, so it was worth trying.

Unfortunately here I'm out of ideas, other people with more experience
in Guix might know better.

Also note that I also do have an A20-OlinuXino-LIME2-eMMC, so I might
be able to run tests too if they are fast to do. Maybe I should try to
cross compile a rootfs and see if it boots.

Long time ago it booted if I recall well, and then it stopped working
but I didn't take the time to track the regression down or to try again.

Good to know.
I don't actually need Guix System on my SBC, but you know, I have it on
my computer @work, @home, on my laptop… so I thought to myself that it
would make more sense to have it everywhere!
Today my computers, tomorrow the world! 😎

Hi,

I've found an idea: guix pull can pull to a precise commit:
>       --commit=COMMIT    download the specified "guix" channel COMMIT

So maybe it works with a commit close to Guix 1.3. If that's the case
we can probably bisect it to the commit that broke your guix pull.

Sounds like a good idea! I'll try that later today and let you know!

I bought a brand new "microSDHC UHS-1 A1" card and re-installed the
latest Armbian on it, and… I couldn't even test your idea, for `guix pull`
now fails with the following error message:

```
root@lime2:~# guix pull
Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'...
guix pull: error: Git error: error inflating zlib stream
```

I tried again, but… it failed again! 😞

… so I tried with [the binary install](https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html)
of Guix, but it fails to install Guix, for the `/tmp` directory on Armbian
is too small! 😱

I thought installing Guix System on my Lime would be less… frustrating!
I think I'll redirect my energy to other tasks for the time being…

Any way, thanks for your time and help!

As I mentioned: "I think I'll redirect my energy to other tasks for the time being…"
That’s exactly what I did!… and forgot to close the bug! 😅
Should I just do that?

Update on bug#59196: `guix pull` fails on A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-eMMC

[Tanguy LE CARROUR]

Hi Guix,

After few… years (😵!?) I gave another try to Guix on A20-OLinuXino-LIME2.
Here is how it went…

I installed the latest Armbian (`25.2.0-trunk.72 bookworm`) on a new SD.
I updated the package list and then… `guix pull`!
83860 new commits and 7 hours later it successfully finished! 🎉
This is already better than last time!

Than, I tried to build the installation image:

😞

Plan B was to try to install Guix on the same drive following Julien’s blog post [1],
but I have no idea what a proper OLinuXino-Lime2 system config file
should look like!? For instance, what should the `bootloader` section be?! 🤔

[1]: https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/guix-on-an-arm-board/

Any help, idea or advice would be welcome!

😞

Plan B was to try to install Guix on the same drive following Julien’s blog post [1],
but I have no idea what a proper OLinuXino-Lime2 system config file
should look like!? For instance, what should the `bootloader` section be?! 🤔

[1]: https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/guix-on-an-arm-board/

Any help, idea or advice would be welcome!

Best regards,

You'd probably want to use the same bootloader as your armbian (I guess u-boot). It's described in the blogpost, you need to find or create the package specific to your board.

Hi Julien,

Oh, you mean I should read the post **before** asking questions!? 🤔… 😅

```
(operating-system
  [...]
  (bootloader
    (bootloader-configuration
      (target "/dev/mmcblk0")
      (bootloader u-boot-a20-olinuxino-lime-bootloader)))
  [...])
```

Thanks! 😉

[Julien Lepiller]

This is usually due to memory usage. You can cry with -c1, which limits builds to one core, but I'm not sure it will lower the build's memory footprint. Maybe try to stop some running services if they can free up some space…

Alternatively, you could also offload the build to a more powerful machine (using qemu-binfmt-service if needed) or copy the result from that machine.
