Hello,
this is my first attempt at trying to install NixOS.
I have a VPS running that unfortunately does not support to boot from custom ISOs. Therefore I instead try to install from a Ubuntu 18.04 live image. I followed part 2.5.4 of the installation manual. When trying to use nixos-install
I ran into this bug but could apply this workaround. Afterwards I retried multiple times to install using this command, which unfortunately fails:
$ sudo PATH="$PATH" NIX_PATH="$NIX_PATH" nohup `which nixos-install` --root /mnt/nix
The strange thing is that the SSH connection is now interrupted and I have to reconnect via SSH to read the output. The last line is:
$ sudo tail -1 nohup.out
error: interrupted by the user
Even stranger is that, if I have a tmux
session running, that session is also killed and nowhere to be found after a reconnect.
Full contents of nohup.out
building the configuration in /mnt/nix/etc/nixos/configuration.nix...
these derivations will be built:

error: interrupted by the user
I deviated further from the installation manual in the following points:
- I enabled remote LUKS unlocking.
- I set up
/dev/sda
with two partitions/dev/sda{1,2}
:-
/dev/sda1
is formatted asext4
for/boot
. -
/dev/sda2
is encrypted usingcryptsetup
/dm-crypt
.- Contained within is a LVM setup.
-
- I mounted the rootfs to
/mnt/nix
. - I used a bind mount to circumvent the storage limitation of the live system:
sudo mv /nix /mnt/nix/lolnix; sudo mkdir /nix; sudo mount --bind /mnt/nix/lolnix/nix /nix
- I first wanted to use a symlink, but then
nix-install
failed.
Also it appears that the RAID1 of the two underlying disks is exposed by the VPS’ RAID controller as /dev/sda
, not /dev/md0
.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Do you think it has to do with the bind mount? Is there a remedy or way to further debug this?
Unfortunately I have not found anything related to my problem. I hope somebody can help me on the bumpy but enjoyable ride.
