Linux Kernel Modules for NixOS

You can find what kernel modules are loaded using lsmod.

However some kernel modules are required at stage 1 boot. Basically preloaded in the initial ram disk before switching to the root filesystem. These kernel modules are mostly needed to deal with peripherals, storage devices, filesystems and network devices. You may need to be wary of these required modules:

sd_mod - SCSI, SATA, and PATA (IDE) devices

Latest Update 2021-03-06 : New image showing the new "Services" in Home Assistant and got some tips from the comments below.

Download the minimal NixOS ISO
(on OSX) write the ISO image to an USB drive:
```

```
where /dev/disk2 is the location of the USB media

Introduction

This is about documenting getting Linux running on the late 2016 and mid 2017 MPB's; the focus is mostly on the MacBookPro13,3 and MacBookPro14,3 (15inch models), but I try to make it relevant and provide information for MacBookPro13,1, MacBookPro13,2, MacBookPro14,1, and MacBookPro14,2 (13inch models) too. I'm currently using Fedora 27, but most the things should be valid for other recent distros even if the details differ. The kernel version is 4.14.x (after latest update).

The state of linux on the MBP (with particular focus on MacBookPro13,2) is also being tracked on https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux . And for Ubuntu users there are a couple tutorials (here and here) focused on that distro and the MacBook.

Note: For those who have followed these instructions ealier, and in particular for those who have had problems with the custom DSDT, modifying the DSDT is not necessary anymore - se

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
