Welcome to Sean Missingham's PC Configuration Repo

I use this repo to maintain the hardware and OS configuration of my daily-driver desktop, which also acts as a home server.

I use NixOS for the operating system, and host many docker container services.

All of the configuration for that is declarative, and version controlled, right here in this repo.

Installation

PreRequisites

• Download and boot NixOS Minimal installer
• Working internet connection (ethernet is easiest)

Once booted to minimal installer

• git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/smissingham/nixos-config
• cd ./nixos-config/installation/
• sudo bash 0_all.sh
• Prompt for YES to permit overwrite contents of md0
• Prompt (twice) for LUKS passphrase
• Prompt again to open LUKS
• Wait for NixOS installation to finish
• Prompt for user password
• sudo reboot
• Optionally, set root passwd (after login is easier)

Post-Installation

• clone repo to ~/Documents
• From now on, use ./_rebuild.sh to copy config from home dir to /etc/nixos
• When desired, git push to push the auto-generated commits up to github master
