nut-shells

NixOS flake templates for nut.

usage

nix shell nixpkgs#git   # if you don't have git

mkdir my-config && cd my-config

# replace <template> with the template name. see below for a list
nix flake init -t github:Francesco149/nut-shells#<template>

git init
git add .

# generate hardware config for your current machine
nixos-generate-config --dir ./hosts/nixos/ --force

sudo nixos-rebuild boot --flake .#nixos
sudo reboot

# log in as headpats with password changeme and change your password.
# NOTE: some templates like the default one have no users,
# so you just log in as root with your root password
passwd

if there's a non-root user, the default username is always headpats with changeme as the initial password. remember to run passwd to change it, then remove users.users.headpats.initialPassword = "changeme"; in hosts/nixos/nixos.nix .

if for whatever reason the config doesn't boot, you can select the previous generation in grub to roll back. NixOS perks!
