nixos

This repository contains my configuration for my Nixos systems. I don't provide any garantuees that it will work on other systems. In addition some of the scripts required for installation will destroy your data when used.

Installation

  1. For Raspis it's the easiest if you prepare the SD card/disk on another system. For a PC you can just boot the installation ISO directly.
  2. For both devices you can format the disk/card with the following script sudo ./scripts/format-disk.sh. Make sure to edit it beforehand, to point it to the correct disk.
  3. Next install the system with sudo nixos-install --no-root-passwd --root /mnt/nixos --impure --flake .#SYSTEMNAME --no-channel-copy
  4. Rename the partitions with the script sudo ./scripts/rename-partitions.sh. With this script as well. Check that you're pointing to the correct disk.

When everything is finished you can reboot the system and remove the USB stick. You have now a fully encrypted NixOS system.

Additional script

  • If you only want to prepare an SD card with an UEFI partition for a Raspberry Pi 4 you can use the script sudo ./scripts/create-uefi.sh

Update remote systems

Simply run the script scripts/remote_switch.sh and it will iterate over all defined systems. With the option -r the systems will reboot as well.

Non-Nixos System

  1. scripts/install-home-manager.sh

Options template

{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }:
let
  cfg = config.programs.NAME;
in
{
  options = {
    programs.NAME.enable = lib.mkEnableOption "DESCRIPTION";
  };

  config = lib.mkIf cfg.enable {
  };
