The NixOS Installer

This installer is named after my doggo Onyxia.

At the core of this installer it does the following:

  • Partition the drive of your choice
  • Installs a base of NixOS (configuration.nix)
  • Installs Plasma (plasma.nix)
  • Installs needed packages (programs.nix)

Nix files:

  • configuration.nix : This is the main file for the base system including some applications that I use
  • plasma.nix : This file is for the desktop, login manager and other KDE applications
  • programs.nix : This file adds applications like Slack, Discord and virt-manager including turning on the services

Plasma files:

  • configs/kwinrc : This has my setting for the Super key (Meta in Plasma) behavior
  • configs/kglobalshortcutsrc : This has window control shortcuts like moving between Workspaces (Desktops in Plasma)

Tested on the following drives:

  • SATA
  • NVMe

This sets the hashedPassword to my own so you will need to update it to match your own as well as the username. I created the hash with this command:

sudo mkpasswd -m sha-512

Get Started

Prerequisites:

  • Prepare an installation medium.
  • Boot the live environment.
  • Connect to internet.

Connect to internet

https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#sec-installation-booting-networking

Start the installer

curl https://gitlab.com/ahoneybun/nyxi-installer/-/raw/main/install.sh > install.sh; sh install.sh

The following will happen:

  • Clear partition table for /dev/***.
  • Creates a GPT partition table for /dev/***.
  • Create a +512M EFI partiton at /dev/***1.
  • Create a encrypted LVM at /dev/***2.
  • Create a swap partition in the LVM and sets it as the same size as the RAM for hibernation if requested.
  • Create a root partition in the LVM.
  • Install systemd-boot.
