We do not have that ready now. The nixos expressions are all meant for native
building.

I use nixos natively in the sheevaplug though, with the filesystem in a SD card.

I cross-build a GNU/Linux for the nanonote too, with nixpkgs, but that's not
nixos. It's another set of nix expressions:

(I don't build them since some months ago; maybe they require some tweeks for
the current nixpkgs)
