- Follow nixos installation guide
- clone to root's home directory
- symlink the host of choice to /etc/nixos
ln -s /root/nixos-configs/hosts/<hostname>/configuration.nix /etc/nixos/configuration.nix- reboot
TODO:
On build we want users that are in wheel to be able to read and write to the nixos-configs in root. They can symlink it somewhere in their user directory if needed. In fact I prefer this and might add this in home manager.
[-d /root/nixos-configs ] || git clone git@github.com:maxsei/nixos-configs.git /root/nixos-configs
chown root:wheel /root
chmod 0770 /root
chown root:wheel -R /root/nixos-configs
find /root/nixos-configs -type d -exec chmod 0770 {} \;
find /root/nixos-configs -type f -exec chmod 0660 {} \;
This repo should exist in the /home/ for the explicit purpose of building and debugging inside of a vm. One tested clone somewhere with root and symlink to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
