# Provision Nixos > \*NixOS was a mistake.\* Set of configs files to setup NixOS. ## Usage 1. Install NixOS with this [guide](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_Installation_Guide). Use the following paritions and btrfs subvolumes: | Name | Type | Mount Point | Size | |---------|-------|-------------|--------------| | EFI | vfat | /boot | 512MB | | root | btrfs | / | rest of disk | | home | btrfs | /home | subvol | | nix | btrfs | /nix | subvol | | persist | btrfs | /persist | subvol | | log | btrfs | /var/log | subvol | 2. Run the following commands: ```bash nix-shell -p vim git git clone https://github.com/starr-dusT/dotfiles ~/.local/share/chezmoi ``` Move the installer created hardware.nix to dotfiles. E.g. `provision/hosts//hardware.nix`. ```bash cd ~/.local/share/chezmoi/provision sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .# chezmoi init && chezmoi apply ``` 3. Profit! Perform additional setup found in [additional-setup](additional-setup.md) ## Update `nixos-rebuild` command is aliased to `nu` assuming the flake is named the same at the hostname of the machine.
