@polygon:catgirl.cloudUnit 1721344 [polygon] (it/its, es/ihr)no i don't know if i am totally hanging but i'm thinking more of a scenario where you have a server that's running some OS, let's say Debian, and you just go and deploy a nixos config onto it and it results in a NixOs system14:59:26
@polygon:catgirl.cloudUnit 1721344 [polygon] (it/its, es/ihr)the more i think about it the more i believe i am just delusional right now14:59:42
@ajs124:ajs124.deajs124 but you can do that with NIXOS_LUSTRATE, no? 15:00:32

no no, there are various ways/projects that achieve that

@janik0:matrix.orgJanik (they/them)What is the current state of things for adding more platform support? I think I saw some messages regarding it some time ago but don't exactly remember.00:18:01

the most common one is nixos-anywhere I believe, but there is also some others like nixos-infect. There is also a issue in the colmena repo about this feature https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena/issues/148

out of scope for this room perhaps, in general there are many ways with varying levels of customizability / if and how you keep the previous installation and their files in tact

Hi o/
Recently I'm getting the following error whenever trying to run colmena build:

error: cannot update unlocked flake input 'hive' in pure mode
Figured out my problem is very likely https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena/issues/202 btw :S

@pgibson:matrix.orgpgibsonI've just had another failed deploy where I lost network connectivity to my Digital Ocean droplet after "pushed system closure" and while "stopping the following units: podman-<redacted>.service, podman-<another redacted>.service". This time I had created an admin user so I can log in via the support console. It looks like the default route is incorrect. 01:11:10
@pgibson:matrix.orgpgibsonThe public interface has an IP address and is "UP", however there's no entry in the routing table for it and the default route is via interface veth0 which seems wrong01:12:51
@pgibson:matrix.orgpgibsonSo it sounds like sometimes restarting the podman services is breaking the routing table - NixOS issue?01:14:01
@pgibson:matrix.orgpgibsonLast time a reboot fixed the connectivity issue, but it would be good to find out why it's breaking so for the moment I haven't rebooted 01:15:57

@sntx:matrix.orgsntx I just want to check with you, in case I misunderstood colmena.

Colmena is a tool to manage existing NixOS configurations. However it cannot create new NixOS installations.

Is that correct?
