 unmolded_can | * Did some more digging into the code and found https://github.com/nix-community/disko/blob/85555d27ded84604ad6657ecca255a03fd878607/lib/types/zfs_fs.nix#L165-L170 which implies there is no way to set https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options#opt-fileSystems._name_.depends for zfs. I guess I can try adding that config in a seperate file and hope nixos/nixpkgs merges the attributes correctly. Actually rereading the issue I found says to do exactly that (last 2 messages, don't skim). So I guess that is the solution. Use depends directly instead of through disko | 08:35:46 |
| unmolded_can | adding fileSystems."/nix".depends = [ "/ or /etc/zfs/keys" ] doesn't seems to force the mount. It still goes load key root, load key fast (fail), mount root, fail to mount /nix and crash. For whatever reason I can't do fileSystems."/mnt/fast/.depends = ... as nixos during build itself fails with a fileSystems."/mnt/fast".device attribute missing (disko issue?). Either way, I think I'll put my /nix and related boot required mounts on the same pool as root to avoid this zfs key and mount dependency hell (though I'm not sure if I'll escape by encrypting the datasets individually; might have to encrypt whole pool so I only need 1 key load). :/ | 09:53:05 |
