# Recover a NixOS install on Kimsufi servers by roll-back | |
# 1. On the Kimsufi dashboard change your boot to rescue (Netboot -> Rescue -> rescue64-pro -> Next -> Confirm) | |
# 2. Restart your server, ideally a soft reboot, otherwise do it from the dashboard | |
# 3. Connect to your server as root by SSH and run this script | |
# 4. Revert your boot option back to your HDD and restart your server | |
