## Installation
> [!NOTE]
> This will get your base system ready, but keep in mind that many things might not work correctly — such as monitor resolution, font size, and more.
### Prerequisites
Boot into the NixOS bootable USB before proceeding with the installation steps.
### Installation Steps
#### 1. Clone the repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/tuxdotrs/nix-config.git
cd nix-config
```
#### 2. Gain root privileges
```bash
sudo su
```
#### 3. Set up disk partitioning
Install the required tools:
```bash
nix-shell -p disko neovim
```
Partition your disk using disko. **This will wipe your drive.** Replace `DISK_PATH` with your actual disk path (e.g., `/dev/vda` or `/dev/nvme0n1`):
```bash
disko --mode disko ./hosts/canopus/disko.nix --arg device '"DISK_PATH"'
```
#### 4. Configure your disk
Edit the configuration file:
```bash
nvim ./hosts/canopus/default.nix
```
In the imports statement, replace:
```nix
(import ./disko.nix {device = "/dev/nvme0n1";})
```
with:
```nix
(import ./disko.nix {device = "DISK_PATH";})
```
Make sure to replace `DISK_PATH` with your actual disk path.
#### 5. Generate hardware configuration
```bash
nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --root /mnt
```
Copy the generated hardware configuration to the repository:
```bash
cp /mnt/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix ./hosts/canopus/hardware.nix
```
#### 6. Install NixOS
```bash
nixos-install --root /mnt --flake .#canopus
```
#### 7. Enter into the new system
```bash
nixos-enter --root /mnt
```
#### 8. Set up directories and permissions
```bash
mkdir -p /persist/home
chown -R tux:users /persist/home
```
#### 9. Set passwords
Set the root password:
```bash
passwd root
```
Set the user password:
```bash
passwd tux
```
#### 10. Reboot
```bash
reboot
```
Your NixOS system should now boot into a beautiful DE.
