My dotfiles.

My dotfiles for nixos. I use home-manager and flakes to manage my configuration.

Installation instructions

• Download minimal nixos iso from here and boot into it.
• Make your partitions and mount them into /mnt and /mnt/boot and /mnt/boot/efi if you are using UEFI.
• To generate your configuration file, run:

nixos-generate-config --root /mnt

• Remove the /mnt/etc/nixos/configuration.nix file.

rm /mnt/etc/nixos/configuration.nix

• Make sure you have an internet connection by running:

ping -c 3 google.com

• If you don't have an internet connection, run the following command to connect to a wifi network:

wpa_supplicant -B -i <interface> -c <(wpa_passphrase <ssid> <password>)

• Run nix-shell -p git to install git temporarily.
• Enter to the directory /mnt/etc/nixos/ by running cd /mnt/etc/nixos/.
• Clone this repository git clone https://github.com/chere3/dots.git . --recurse-submodules into /mnt/etc/nixos/.
• Run exit and then nix-shell to enter a nix shell.
• Replace the /mnt/etc/nixos/nixos/hosts/<hostname>/hardware-configuration.nix with the one generated by nixos-generate-config --root /mnt located at /mnt/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix.
• To install nixos, run:

nixos-install --flake /mnt/etc/nixos#<hostname>

• Reboot and enjoy your new system.
• Clone the dots repository into your home directory by running git clone https://github.com/chere3/dots.git ~/.dots --recurse-submodules and then run doas nh home switch -R to switch home-manager to the new configuration.
• Enjoy your new system.
