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 a DE/WM of your choice (currently supporting GNOME and Plasma)
  • Installs needed packages (programs.nix)
  • Installs needed packages for certain hardware

nix files are from this repo but that can be changed as needed.

Tested on the following drives:

  • SATA
  • NVMe

Tested on x86_64 machines.

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

or

sh <(curl -L https://gitlab.com/ahoneybun/nyxi-installer/-/raw/main/install.sh)

The following will happen:

  • Clear partition table for /dev/***.
  • Creates a GPT partition table for /dev/***.
  • Create a 1GB 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.

Roadmap

Possible Ideas

  • Install nix-channels such as nixos-hardware and home-manager after install.
