The best tutorial on this step out there! - Suggestion: How to install in the same config from booted USB drive using flakes from remote git repo, instead of generated config.
A quicker and easier way to create a swap file is use fallocate. It just allocates a file of the size you specify no need to write zeros. sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
A few moments later... Man, from all other YT videos that I've watched in search for a clear and solid explanation of the whole process, yours is the one that delivers it. Thanks. (BTW, by the time you recorded this, you were in Australia, if I got it right, but your accent doesn't seem to be from there, much more like an American. Where are you from?)
I just installed nix. How do i configure nix by adding etc/nix/nix.conf? Every time I add it to the terminal i receive this message: "zsh: command not found: substituters zsh: command not found: trusted-public-keys". I am using Mac OS.
What do mkswap and swapon configure? if its outside of the domain of an OS, because the configuration somewhat persists and is not defined in the nixox configuration? why can't it be fully defined inside nixos config?
me: i probably shouldn't follow an installation guide, nixos probably has a gui installer and gui's are pretty much self explanatory me: *checks video length* me: OH MY GOD. me: so this is like arch huh, it doesnt have an installer and you have to enter commands one-by-one also me: fuck.

I love this series! Goes a long way to help newcomers understand how to do the basics and progress!

Thanks. i will watch the reset of these videos and tomorrow i should be up and running. first time trying nixos
This is awesome. Thanks for making this!
Can you make it so your videos have a transcript?
Very helpful! Thank you Wil!
Really amazing videos dude. Thanks! Just one question...do you hate your "Enter" key?

Thanks Wil, awesome guide!
дай бог тебе здоровья)
Спасибо тебе)
Thank you very much for this video!
Really good when my internet is up!! Why don't alias settings parse in the Home-Manager?
What do mkswap and swapon configure? if its outside of the domain of an OS, because the configuration somewhat persists and is not defined in the nixox configuration? why can't it be fully defined inside nixos config?
Really helpful video Wil
I just wanted to ask and see if your "Enter" key still working
Would block device UUIDs be preserved on reboot in case of a real (i.e. non-VM) machine?
Great video mate 👍
I feel like installation and set-up should be separate videos. It's particularly hard to find this video for a person looking for home-manager setup.
Great video, you explained everything perfectly. Thank you so much for the help :)
25:30 "Failed to activate swap /.swapfile"
KDE works with Xorg? In 2021?
Nice little intro to nixos, BTW -> use xrandr to set resolution in vm's tuto... :D
Turns out you can set a label with mkfs.fat byt using the '-n' flag instead of '-L' :)
Awesome thanks for that. Good to know :).
Poor internet connection, so sadly cannot see any of Wil's input.....
Thanks Wil
thanks bro
Thankyou sir.

arch is easy to install once you understand what's going on
@@_invencible_ it still isn't easy to install. it took my whole afternoon for me to install arch. and that was with archinstall.
@@kantraa what step caused you trouble? I've installed arch at least 15 times by now. And i've been using it for years.
