James Patrick ab11f72a6b Requires the nixos package to be installed. 
I'm guessing that this stems from needing lower level access for setting
up the wayland backend. This was already in the vague grey area where it
could be said to live in userland or system land so I'm leaving this here.

Nil Install Guide

This is the nix configuration for a 2021 Thinkpad T14 AMD g2 machine named nil.

The boot media looks like

NAME                          TYPE     MOUNTPOINT
nvme0n1                       disk
├─nvme0n1p1                   part     /boot
└─nvme0n1p2                   part
  └─crypt                     crypt    /dev/mapper/root
    └─partitions              lvm
      ├─swap                  swap     /dev/partitions/swap
      └─lvm_root              lvm      /dev/partitions/lvm_root
        └─rpool               zpool
          ├─rpool/root        zfs
          ├─rpool/root/nixos  zfs      /
          └─rpool/home        zfs      /home

Install

A makefile is used for ease of use. To set this up on a new machine you will need the following:

nix-env -iA nixos.gnumake
nix-env -iA nixos.git

then checkout this repo, create & modify the .env file

git clone https://git.jpatrick.io/james/nil.git /tmp/install
cd /tmp/install
cp .env_sample .env

Once you have set the PASSPHRASE & DISK vars run

sudo make nix_install

TODO

  • Document setting the networking.hostId variable.
  • Use NixOS Hardware Modules.
  • Fix wireless driver issue :: This uses the Realtek 8852AE 802.11AX WWAN.
