My NixOS configuration
DEPRECATED: See https://github.com/srid/nixos-config which uses flakes and is simple.
Setup
-
First, copy the 'srid' user config to
device, and activate that. We need to do this before cloning the repo under srid's home directory. -
Then, ssh as srid@... and:
sudo nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable nixos
sudo nix-channel --add https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/archive/master.tar.gz nixos-hardware
sudo nix-channel --update
ssh-keygen # then, add to Github
nix-shell -p git -p vim
...
git clone [email protected]:srid/nix-config.git $HOME/nix-config
cd $HOME/nix-config
# First, review ./hardware/???.nix
sudo mv /etc/nixos/hardware /tmp/
sudo ln -s $(pwd)/hardware/???.nix /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
