Yes, I was actually able to run a 32-bit program on my Talos II.

There are efforts ongoing to integrate Power architecture in Guix, you can find the latest additions on the "wip-ppc" branch[1]. There's actually a blocking issue related to reproducibility[2]. You're welcome for any hint to try out Guix on Libre-Soc platform, would be awesome! Have a happy hacking day!

Anyway, runing RISC-V on Guix (can I dream "the Hurd"?) is an amazing perspective, so count me in! Did anyone try building bootstrap binaries for RISC-V?

I added a few RISC-V related packages to guix already: u-boot-qemu-riscv64 u-boot-qemu-riscv64-smode u-boot-sifive-fu540 opensbi-sifive-fu540 opensbi-qemu-sifive-u linux-libre-riscv64-generic Got as far as booting a kernel in qemu, at least.

Porting Guix to RISCV
Anyone interested in porting GNU Mes and GNU Guix to RISCV? We can try and purchase the hardware. We have a Polarfire running https://www.crowdsupply.com/microchip/polarfire-soc-icicle-kit and there are more options coming. I am happy to support such an initiative and buy the hardware. Pj.
