| tm1v | I am having difficulty installing nixos on my vps instance. I was following the official manual at https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/
When I run lsblk, I get the result shown in the attached image.
And when I run parted /dev/vda -- mklabel get the following:
Warning: Partition(s) on /dev/vda are being used.
If I ignore the warning and proceed and restart, the vps never boots again, it gets stuck

 K900 | Are you trying to install from a live Linux system? | 19:32:41 |
| K900 | Or from the ISO or what | 19:32:48 |

| K900 | OK what is happening here | 19:37:09 |
| tm1v | The installation media is the official iso (minimal).
fdisk -l command yields the output shown in the screenshot by the way. | 19:37:06 |
| K900 | I am very confused | 19:37:23 |
| K900 | Did you dd the image onto /dev/vda or something | 19:37:30 |
| tm1v | you and me both | 19:37:29 |
| K900 | Anyway, nuke /dev/vda, reboot the system to the ISO again, and then post the output of lsblk again | 19:38:52 |
