Personal configuration for NixOS, home-manager and others.

## Usage

1. Partition accordingly.

1. Set up LUKS as appropriate.

	1. `cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/XXX`

	1. `cryptsetup open /dev/XXX crypt`

	1. `pvcreate /dev/mapper/crypt`

	1. `vgcreate data /dev/mapper/crypt`

	1. `lvcreate -n swap -L 4G data`

	1. `lvcreate -n root -l 100%FREE data`

	1. `mkswap /dev/mapper/data-swap`

	1. `mkfs.btrfs /dev/mapper/data-root`

1. Create subvolumes.

	1. `mount -t btrfs /dev/mapper/data-root -o noatime,ssd,space_cache=v2,commit=120,compress=zstd /mnt`

	1. `for i in root home nix persist log; do btrfs sub create /mnt/$i; done`

	1. `btrfs sub snap -r /mnt/root{,-blank}`

	1. `umount /mnt`

	1. `mount -t btrfs /dev/mapper/data-root -o noatime,ssd,space_cache=v2,commit=120,compress=zstd,subvol=root /mnt`

	1. `mkdir -p /mnt/{home,nix,persist,var/log,boot}`

	1. `for i in home nix persist; do mount -t btrfs /dev/mapper/data-root -o noatime,ssd,space_cache=v2,commit=120,compress=zstd,subvol=$i /mnt/$i; done`

	1. `mount -t btrfs /dev/mapper/data-root -o noatime,ssd,space_cache=v2,commit=120,compress=zstd,subvol=log /mnt/var/log`

	1. `mount /dev/BOOTPARTITION /mnt/boot`

1. `nixos-generate-config --root /mnt` and copy relevant generated details to a

   new host under `nixos/`.

1. Write host-specific config under new host under `nixos/`.

	1. UUIDs can be found using `blkid | grep UUID`.

1. Setup password files.

	1. `mkdir -p /mnt/persist/passwd`

	1. `mkpasswd -m sha-512 > /mnt/persist/passwd/root`

	1. `mkpasswd -m sha-512 > /mnt/persist/passwd/user`

1. `nixos-install --impure --flake /path/to/conf.nix#NEWHOSTNAME`
