**Hey,** you. You're finally awake. You were trying to configure your OS declaratively, right? Walked right into that NixOS ambush, same as us, and those dotfiles over there.

## Quick start

1. Yoink [NixOS 20.09][nixos] (must be newer than Sept 12, 2020 for `nixos-install --flake`).
2. Boot into the installer.
3. Do your partitions and mount your root to `/mnt`
4. `git clone https://github.com/hlissner/dotfiles /mnt/etc/nixos`
5. Install NixOS: `nixos-install --root /mnt --flake /mnt/etc/nixos#XYZ`, where
   `XYZ` is your hostname.  Use `#generic` for a simple, universal config.
6. OPTIONAL: Create a sub-directory in `hosts/` for your device. See [host/kuro]
   as an example.
7. Reboot!

## Frequently asked questions

+ **Why NixOS?**

  Because declarative, generational, and immutable configuration is a godsend
  when you have a fleet of computers to manage.
  
+ **How do I change the default username?**

  1. Set `USER` the first time you run `nixos-install`: `USER=myusername
     nixos-install --root /mnt --flake #XYZ`
  2. Or change `"hlissner"` in modules/options.nix.

+ **How do I "set up my partitions"?**

  My main host [has a README](hosts/kuro/README.org) you can use as a reference.
  I set up an EFI+GPT system and partitions with `parted` and `zfs`.
  
+ **How 2 flakes?**

  It wouldn't be the NixOS experience if I gave you all the answers in one,
  convenient place.
