nixos/lib/make-disk-image: refactor to use nixos-install - Replace hand-rolled version of nixos-install in make-disk-image by an actual call to nixos-install - Required a few cleanups of nixos-install - nixos-install invokes an activation script which the hand-rolled version in make-disk-image did not do. We remove /etc/machine-id as that's a host-specific, impure, output of the activation script Testing: nix-build '<nixpkgs/nixos/release.nix>' -A tests.installer.simple passes Also tried generating an image with: nix-build -E 'let pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {}; lib = pkgs.lib; nixos = import <nixpkgs/nixos> { configuration = { fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/disk/by-label/nixos"; boot.loader.grub.devices = [ "/dev/sda" ]; boot.loader.grub.extraEntries = '"''"' menuentry "Ubuntu" { insmod ext2 search --set=root --label ubuntu configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg } '"''"'; }; }; in import <nixpkgs/nixos/lib/make-disk-image.nix> { inherit pkgs lib; config = nixos.config; diskSize = 2000; partitioned = false; installBootLoader = false; }' Then installed the image: $ sudo df if=./result/nixos.img of=/dev/sdaX bs=1M $ sudo resize2fs /dev/disk/by-label/nixos $ sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/nixos /mnt $ sudo mount --rbind /proc /mnt/proc $ sudo mount --rbind /dev /mnt/dev $ sudo chroot /mnt /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration boot [ … optionally do something about passwords … ] and successfully rebooted to that image. Was doing all this from inside a Ubuntu VM with a single user nix install.
