This runs the installer in a QEMU VM. Unlike the old installer test that ran inside a declaratively built RedHat/Debian image, this uses an image from Vagrant.

Should all these plain URLs be quoted (especially due to RFC45: NixOS/rfcs#45)? Or does <nix/fetchurl.nix> require unquoted URLs?

I wasn't able to get it working with a plain string:

If you try without --rebuild, it should succeed.

Any chance we could directly call vagrant instead of reimplementing the logic ourselves?
It seems like vagrant box add --name testVM ${image.rootDisk} && vagrant init testVM should allow running vagrant against a local image

How do you continue from there? I tried vagrant up, but it requires libvirt. I tried to run libvirtd inside a derivation and got into trouble[1]. There's https://github.com/billyan2018/vagrant-qemu which looks interesting though.
[1] After fixing the unix socket path in the Vagrantfile
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "testVM"
config.vm.provider :libvirt do |libvirt|
libvirt.uri = "qemu+unix:///session?socket=/run/user/$UID/libvirt/libvirt-sock"
end
end
libvirt failed with some permission / path errors.

Pulling in vagrant and libvirt adds a lot of complexity compared to calling qemu directly that I'd rather avoid...

It would be quite convenient to have an all task that ran them for a specific architecture...

This is loosely based on the Nix installer matrix (https://github.com/grahamc/nix-install-matrix), but it runs inside a Nix build using QEMU rather than outside of it using Vagrant. It also doesn't rely on import-from-derivation, unlike the old installer test that ran inside a declaratively built RedHat/Debian image.
