# Create host with disko-install
|
||||
How to use disko-install is described here: https://github.com/nix-community/disko/blob/master/docs/disko-install.md
|
||||

|
||||
Here are the exact steps to get bakunin running:
|
||||
First create machines/hostname/configuration.nix
|
||||
Add hosts nixosConfiguration in machines/configurations.nix
|
||||
Boot nixos installer on the Machine.
|
||||
``` bash
|
||||
# establish network connection
|
||||
wpa_passphrase "network" "password" > wpa.conf
|
||||
wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp3s0 -c wpa.conf
|
||||
ping 8.8.8.8
|
||||
# if that works continue
|
||||
|
||||
# generate a base hardware config
|
||||
nixos-generate-config --root /tmp/config --no-filesystems
|
||||
|
||||
# get the infra repo
|
||||
nix-shell -p git
|
||||
git clone https://git.dynamicdiscord.de/kalipso/infrastructure
|
||||
cd infrastructure
|
||||
|
||||
# add the new generated hardware config (and import in hosts configuration.nix)
|
||||
cp /tmp/config/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix machines/bakunin/
|
||||
|
||||
# check which harddrive we want to install the system on
|
||||
lsblk #choose harddrive, in this case /dev/sda
|
||||
|
||||
# run nixos-install on that harddrive
|
||||
sudo nix --extra-experimental-features flakes --extra-experimental-features nix-command run 'github:nix-community/disko/latest#disko-install' -- --flake .#bakunin --disk main /dev/sda
|
||||
|
||||
# this failed with out of memory
|
||||
# running again showed: no disk left on device
|
||||
# it seems the usb stick i used for flashing is way to small
|
||||
# it is only
|
||||
# with a bigger one (more than 8 gig i guess) it should work
|
||||
# instead the disko-install tool i try the old method - first partitioning using disko and then installing the system
|
||||
# for that i needed to adjust ./machines/modules/disko/btrfs-laptop.nix and set the disk to "/dev/sda"
|
||||
|
||||
sudo nix --extra-experimental-features "flakes nix-command" run 'github:nix-community/disko/latest' -- --mode format --flake .#bakunin
|
||||
|
||||
# failed with no space left on device.
|
||||
# problem is lots of data is written to the local /nix/store which is mounted on tmpfs in ram
|
||||
# it seems that a workaround could be modifying the bootable stick to contain a swap partition to extend tmpfs storage
