Installing NixOS on EFI based Intel NUC using USB stick does not output to VGA console #49511
Comments
I now deactivated UEFI boot on the NUC and installation works fine. Why is ubuntu able to install with UEFI without problems but NixOS seems to have issues with that? |
I think it is more likely that someone could test/help if you could also mention the NUC model number. (E.g. my NUC7CJYH with HDMI works fine with UEFI.) |

@michas2 apparently you need to update BIOS as it introduces support for Linux on NUC8ixBEH family: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28394/BIOS-Update-BECFL357-86A-?product=126140 |
O, hai. =) |
Hah, yeah, fatfingering through completions. duh, sorry. |
@peel Booting an Ubuntu-Image works perfectly fine. Therefore I'm pretty sure it is possible without any "BIOS" update. |

Issue description
I tried to install NixOS on an Intel NUC using a USB stick.
I get the rEFInd boot manager, but running any of the option does only produce a black screen. (The boot process seems to continue but without any visible output it is pretty much impossibe to do anything useful with it.)
(Ubuntu installs fine, so it seems to to be a hardware only issue.)
Steps to reproduce
dd
to write it to some USB stick.Technical details
What kind of details could I collect in order to debug this further?
(Unfortunately the device does not have an serial console.)
