NixOS seems to be quite interesting, an OS with declarative provisioning baked right in.
- oblio 6y agoIsn't that like killing a fly with a sledgehammer? You're proposing that he replaces a cross platform tool with an entire OS and on top of that with a tool that has a very peculiar package management system (I'm not saying it's bad, just that it kind of requires full buy-in to make it work).
- datashaman 6y agoTried installing NixOS a few days ago. Live CD created an appealing desktop environment, could not get it to install on a partition though. There is no installer to speak of, I followed the instructions closely but ended up with a starter configuration that lacked network access (which was required to install the network components; ikr). gave up.
