Nanuqsaurus NixOS installer
===========================

Run the non-interactive installer:

  sudo /etc/nixos/scripts/install-btrfs.sh


Optionally set DISK and TARGET_HOST (defaults: DISK=/dev/vda, TARGET_HOST=nanuqsaurus)

  sudo DISK=/dev/vda TARGET_HOST=nanuqsaurus /etc/nixos/scripts/install-btrfs.sh


The script wipes the whole disk, creates Btrfs subvolumes (root, home, nix), copies the flake, generates hardware config, and installs. It writes host files under `/etc/nixos/hosts/local-<hostname>.nix` and `local-<hostname>-hardware.nix` (kept local to the machine).


If you need a more custom setup please run the partitioning manually, mount the target to /mnt and then install the system:

  nixos-install --root /mnt --flake "/mnt/etc/nixos#local-${TARGET_HOST}" --no-root-passwd


After install finishes, reboot into the new system.
