## 2. How to use

|
|
|
Currently this NXP overlay is used for generating EFI-bootable NixOS images.
|
|
|
|
|
I recommend to use [Tow-Boot](https://tow-boot.org/) as a bootloader, but U-Boot from this overlay can also be used.
|
|
|
|
|
U-Boot was tested separately from NixOS.

Code snippet example that enables imx8qm configuration:

|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
{ nixos-hardware, }: {
|
|
|
|
|
system = "aarch64-linux";
|
|
|
|
|
modules = [
|
|
|
|
|
nixos-hardware.nixosModules.imx8qm-mek
|
|
|
|
|
];
|
