| Nehu | Could someone tell me how to update to a newer channel and get more up-to-date packages than from 22.05?
In a fresh installation, I did the following:
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
sudo nixos-channel --add https://channels.nixos.org/nixos-22.11 nixos
sudo nixos-channel --update
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
The second rebuild outputs errors:

| K900 | That's .. interesting | 14:33:39 |
| K900 | Maybe disable copying launchers for now | 14:33:47 |
| K900 | wsl.startMenuLaunchers = false; | 14:34:24 |
 Arson Copperflame | I fixed that big some time ago, I think. We should really push out a new release sometime soon | 14:34:44 |
| K900 | We need to fix the installer situation | 14:35:14 |
| K900 | So nixos-wsl is added as a channel | 14:35:19 |
| K900 | And updated as normal | 14:35:28 |
| Arson Copperflame | I know, I started tinkering on that, but it's probably gonna take some time | 14:36:30 |
| Arson Copperflame | I want to do some cleanup first. And I want to make syschdemd use more of the native systemd code, so it hopefully needs less extra maintenance. Microsofts recent patches make me even more reluctant to drop it; it seems we can't trust them to not spontaneously brick the systemd shim | 14:39:32 |

Can you still get a shell? If not, try the following:
wsl -d NixOS -e /bin/sh -c '/nix/var/nix/profiles/system/activate; source /etc/set-environment; bash -l'
From there you can edit the configuration and rebuild with nixos-rebuild boot (switch won't work). Then run wsl -t NixOS and try starting it again

Microsofts recent patches make me even more reluctant to drop it; it seems we can't trust them to not spontaneously brick the systemd shim I wouldn't rely on them not bricking syschdemd either | 15:05:12 |
| Arson Copperflame | True, but it's less likely that they brick both | 15:06:15 |
| K900 | Maybe we should have some nixos-enter-esque script in a known location so you can run it from the mariner-cbl container | 15:07:28 |
| K900 | And then fix your system from there | 15:07:34 |
| Arson Copperflame | I think I put something like that into the DistroLauncher branch. The idea is that you can run nixos rescue to get a shell | 15:08:59 |
