NixOS repo

My NixOS configuration repo. I heard about this and that in a podcast. I am not a software developer nor a system administrator. I know enough to be dangerous but not enough to be satisfied. I have used most OS's, lots o' distros, ssh'd to several servers, but have never seriously invested my time into any tech in particular.

I think this is my chance to change that and maybe even reach inner peace.

Goals

• Keep it simple and contained
  • No flakes
  • No home manager
  • No dotfiles
• Stick to stable
• Have some fun

Setup

This might work.

1. Install NixOS

2. Log in and clone nixos repo to home or someone it can be edited without root priveleges.

3. Copy hardware config if needed.

   cp /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix ~/nixos/

4. Or generate a new hardware config.

   nixos-generate-config --dir ~/nixos/

5. Build and switch to new config.

   sudo nixos-rebuild switch -I nixos-config="~/nixos/configuration.nix"
