Can Hydra build jobs that use the PkgsCross aarch64-linux?
AFAIK hydra.nixos.org uses dedicated aarch64 hardware for it’s remote builder?
I found this…
Hydra Jobs
This repository also contains our complete hydra declarative project and jobset specification. This won't be of much use outside of our environment but there probably are a few things to take inspiration from. This includes a more elaborate example for declarative jobsets and aarch64 cross-building on hydra.

whats my options/idea’s on building aarch64 jobs on a hydra without dedicated aarch64 hardware?
Sure, cross-compiled packages build just fine. There’s even a dedicated nixpkgs jobset for cross-compilation of certain packages: Hydra - nixpkgs:cross-trunk
Note the configuration tab on that jobset to setup your own. Also, you should know that if you’re cross compiling software for a system, that system will not be able to use those cross-built store paths when building something natively.
