my-nix-config

My NixOS configuration. Not meant for use by anyone else except as a learning resource.

This configuration was based on Wil T's excellent NixOS introduction series.

Scripts

These mostly exist just so I don't forget the commands...

Update flake inputs:

./scripts/update.sh

Apply changes to system:

./scripts/apply.sh

Recurring issues

/boot out of space

The /boot partition on my desktop is woefully small and sometimes runs out of space when applying the configuration. I have found that this can be fixed by a combination of...

• sudo rm -r /boot/kernels
• sudo nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/system --delete-generations +2

Also of note: if something goes wrong, pass --install-bootloader to nixos-rebuild to reinstall the bootloader.
