| Anyone using nixos-remote with their colmena configuartion to initially deploy their systems? | 16:05:34 | |
| 16:13:18 | ||
| Oh nice, that seems to be much better than the hacky script that I've been using. Also takes care of partitioning as well! | 21:19:02 | |
| just gave nixos-remote a try on hetzner cloud, but it kinda bricks the vm | 21:47:11 | |
| maybe the memory of a cx11 just isn't sufficient, will try with cx21 | 21:54:42 | |

In reply to @manveru:matrix.orgThat's probably it, the default image needs to load a whole nixos image into ram. Otherwise it should work on hcloud. I have a wip branch with a smaller image that works on cx11 and other small machines | 08:32:58 | |
| I think most nixos-remote development happens against hcloud atm actually 😄 | 08:33:42 | |
In reply to @0x4a6f:matrix.orgYes | 08:45:19 | |
| i'm bloody useless in specifying the disko config it seems :| | 18:34:07 | |
| tried with systemd-boot and it just hangs searching for a disk, and grub refuses to be installed | 18:35:30 | |
| that's after a few hours being stuck on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/73404 and figuring out what exact version of the kexec-installer i need | 18:36:39 | |
even if it would work to use nixos-remote, the only benefit is in the partitioning step, doing the groupadd, useradd, nix/install, and colmena apply takes only about 3 minutes and isn't as error-prone, but then i'm stuck with ext4 on the main disk | 18:38:56 | |
| ah, finally got it, it needed an additional bios grub partition between 0 and 1M... | 19:00:32 | |

| I'm getting this error message when I try to update my flake, seems to be coming from Colmena, anybody know what's up?
| 14:50:31 | |
| Ask Yourself🍉: are you overriding colmena's inputs? | 14:51:19 | |
| I don't think so, this is my current flake (with link to Colmena line): https://gitlab.com/IsaacBrown92/dotfiles/-/blob/main/flake.nix#L5 | 14:52:08 | |
