Where to find dmesg and /etc contents of specific system generation?

2021-04-10 Thread Brendan Tildesley
I think if you type
guix system list-generations

you will see "canonical file name" which lists a path. inside there there is an 
etc directory that looks like the right one.

Since you reported success, I pushed my patch to the website. Let's see
what we need to change in the README for it to work properly.

I've install that firmware on my Talos II and I can confirm that it works.
I have reviewed 0001-website-drafts-Add-powerpc64le-linux-announcement.patch 
and it looks good.
It would be good to mention the Libre-SoC project(https://libre-soc.org/), 
which might be a good target for the future.
