Nixos Impermanence Desktop aka "Disko Inferno"

Configuration files for NixOS with an ephemeral root, erased every boot.

What this repo gives you:

A flake-ified config
Declarative Disk setup & management with Disko
Ephemeral root (with either BTRFS or tmpfs) using the nixos impermamence module
Modularized config files, including:
- myparams.nix - initial set of install parameters (username, hostname, ssh-key & Desktop). Edit directly or via the install script.
- packages.nix - packages divided into categories for easy modification / maintenence
- users.nix - for extensive user configuation
- desktop.nix - Allows multiple DEs (currently KDE or Pantheon). DE set with myDesktop variable in configuation.nix
Install script:
- nix-setup.sh - run this to install (full install instructions below)
Helper scripts to manage after install (placed in /persist/scripts and added to $PATH)
- changepass.sh - script to change user password in a running system
- push-to-git.sh - script to push /etc/nixos files to a git repo
- cruft.sh - shows all files written to / since boot (erased next boot)

Then in a shell (either directly of vias ssh) clone this repo, e.g.

curl -L https://github.com/chewblacka/nixos/archive/refs/heads/main.zip --output main.zip
unzip main.zip

Run the install script which will install the necessary files for impermanence, then prompt you to proceed with the ISO NixOS install:
```
./nixos-main/scripts/nix-setup.sh
```
