Quick start

1. Acquire NixOS 23.05 or newer:

   # Download nixos-unstable
   wget -O nixos.iso https://channels.nixos.org/nixos-unstable/latest-nixos-minimal-x86_64-linux.iso
   
   # Write it to a flash drive
   cp nixos.iso /dev/sdX

2. Boot into the installer.

3. Switch to root user: sudo su -

4. Do your partitions and mount your root to /mnt (for example).

5. Install these dotfiles:

   nix-shell -p git nixFlakes
   
   # Set HOST to the desired hostname of this system
   HOST=...
   # Set USER to your desired username (defaults to leniviy)
   USER=...
   
   git clone https://github.com/lenivaya/dotfiles /etc/dotfiles
   cd /etc/dotfiles
   
   # Create a host config in `hosts/` and add it to the repo:
   mkdir -p hosts/$HOST
   nixos-generate-config --root /mnt --dir /etc/dotfiles/hosts/$HOST
   rm -f hosts/$HOST/configuration.nix
   cp hosts/t440p/default.nix hosts/$HOST/default.nix
   vim hosts/$HOST/default.nix  # configure this for your system; don't use it verbatim!
   git add hosts/$HOST
   
   # Install nixOS
   USER=$USER nixos-install --root /mnt --impure --flake .#$HOST
   
   # If you get 'unrecognized option: --impure', replace '--impure' with
   # `--option pure-eval no`.
   
   
   # Then move the dotfiles to the mounted drive!
   mv /etc/dotfiles /mnt/etc/dotfiles

⚠️ Don't forget to change your root and $USER passwords! They are set to nixos by default.
