Preface

This manual describes how to install, use and extend NixOS, a Linux distribution based on the purely functional package management system Nix, that is composed using modules and packages defined in the Nixpkgs project.

Installation

This section describes how to obtain, install, and configure NixOS for first-time use.

Obtaining NixOS

NixOS ISO images can be downloaded from the NixOS download page. There are a number of installation options. In this manual we will assume that the chosen option is Minimal ISO image (64bit). You can burn it on a USB stick with:

Installation of NixOS with encrypted root

These are my notes on instaling NixOS 16.03 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (4th generation) with an encrypted root file system using UEFI.

Most of this is scrambled from the following pages:

How to run Linux desktop in a corporate environment

	# Synchronize history between bash sessions
	#
	# Make history from other terminals available to the current one. However,
	# don't mix all histories together - make sure that all commands from the
	# current session are on top of its history, so that pressing up arrow will
	# give you most recent command from this session, not from any session.
	#
	# Since history is saved on each prompt, this additionally protects it from
	# terminal crashes.

	// This is a value (de\|en)coder for the github.com/google/uuid UUID type. For best experience, register
	// mongoRegistry to mongo client instance via options, e.g.
	// clientOptions := options.Client().SetRegistry(mongoRegistry)

	// Only BSON binary subtype 0x04 is supported.
