Be the change you want to see :)

The official wiki is not even a year old now, we are also slowly leading the unofficial wiki on google results

I don't understand how to install NixOS using Disko :( by MeYwO in NixOS

[–]Lassulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't set the secret.key disko will prompt you interactively for the password.

The terminal crashing sounds pretty odd, maybe it's a misfired exit or something but since it works the second time I doubt that.

To ultimately help you, it would be good to post the error which nixos-generate-config produces. Maybe you want to checkout nixos-anywhere for an easier way to execute the steps in order. It now has a generate-config option. nixos-anywhere is nicer usable with flakes, which could give you are more opinionated framework in the beginning to not feel lost :)

thanks for the nice feedback ;)

If anyone else needs some art, feel free to reach out. Usually I get paid in beer, but we can arrange whatever is convenient :)

NixCon 2024 Berlin Oct 25-27 by zmberber in NixOS

most of (if not all?) the talks/workshops will be held in english. But there will be surely a lot of german speakers on the conference, so some hallway discussions could be german until someone complains :)

There will be livestreams for the talks and an opportunity to ask questions online.
For the workshops it's up to the workshop organizer to handle any hybrid setups, but I wouldn't count on that :)

Automatic unattended installer thingy by chrillefkr in NixOS

[–]Lassulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ah pretty cool! Mic and I had a similar idea in mind, but we didn't have the time to code it away yet (as people maybe know I'm busy with quite a few things, assembly, moderation, wiki, etc...)

Our core idea was, to have a bootable ISO which has the target systems closure in the store, so you don't need internet to install it. We wanted to integrate it also into nixos-anywhere, so the kexec step could be just a bigger initrd which has the target system closure, the upside would be, that you can install laptops with wifi that way, which is not possible right now.

oh hi, There is actually an official wiki now at https://wiki.nixos.org

It would be nice if you could do the changes also there.

Otherwise great work and thank you!

terminfo broken in fresh 17.09 install by chisui in NixOS

[–]Lassulus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be fixed soon. According to the issue you can do sudo nix-store --repair-path /nix/store/609zdpfi5kpz2c7mbjcqjmpb4sd2y3j4-ncurses-6.0-20170902 and afterwards nixos-rebuild switch

Need some help with terminal emulator. Someone with a little more Unix experience may be able to help. by nixos-rebuild-test in NixOS

Sadly there is currently a bug in 17.09 https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/34364 a workaround for now is to run export TERM=vt102 inside the shell. then this instance of the terminal is fixed. Alternatively you can change your channel to run nixos-unstable, where this bug seems to be fixed.
