hello to all fellow disko dancers/lovers
the drive is encrypted, and every time i boot it waits for this swap, but it's not there

                content = {
                  type = "btrfs";
                  extraArgs = ["-f"];
                  subvolumes = {
                    "/@SWAP" = {
                      mountpoint = "/.swapvol";
                      swap.swapfile.size = "(people will start asking why so much swap)G";
                    };
                  };
                };

maybe you want to set swap.swapfile.path instead of mountpoint?

In reply to @lassulus:lassul.us
so maybe you don't need mountpoint?
