NixOS is installed with GNOME with the following system configuration:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Name | David Kopczynski |
| User | user |
| Password | (found in Bitwarden) |
This repository is structured into small nix files that are combined to create the system configuration. The general structure is as follows:
| Directory | Description |
|---|---|
./channels |
channel configuration |
./derivations |
custom derivations for the system |
./hosts |
specific hardware / system configurations |
./install |
general installation configurations |
./resources |
resources for the system |
When copying the system to a new device it is necessary to add some base configuration to the system in order to clone this repository (git, ssh). Afterwards, the setup script can be run with sh setup.sh to load this repository for the first time (when migrating the system to another device, the keystore in ~/.local/share/keyrings should also be copied to the new device, as well as the SSH keys in ~/.ssh), followed by sudo nixos-rebuild switch to build the system.
Additionally, channels must be subscribed to manually with sudo nix-channel --add $URL $NAME and updated with sudo nix-channel --update. This setup requires the following channels:
sudo nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-24.11.tar.gz home-manager
sudo nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-24.11 nixos
sudo nix-channel --add https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/archive/master.tar.gz nixos-hardware
sudo nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable nixos-unstable
sudo nix-channel --add https://github.com/Mic92/sops-nix/archive/master.tar.gz sops-nix
