# 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: (nix-configs/)
|
|
|
|
- `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
|
|
- `oryp6.nix` : This file is mainly for my System76 Oryx Pro (oryp6) to add and enable the NVIDIA driver from stable
|
|
- `unstable.nix` : This file has the applications that need to be from unstable to work like ProtonVPN software
|
|
|
|
Plasma files: (configs)
|
|
|
|
- `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)
|
|
- `configs/krunnerrc` : Sets KRunner to in the center of the screen when activated
|
|
- `configs/kdeglobals` : Sets the theme to Breeze Dark
|
|
|
|
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

|
|
|
|
## 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.
