NixOS then lives in the future, as that is exactly what it does!
- nix23 4y agoPff, FreeBSD and Illumos/Solaris have BE's (boot environments) since years
- kaba0 4y agoCan you give your system’s declarative configuration to another machine and boot into an equivalent one? :D
- vermaden 4y agoYes. With FreeBSD I can 'send' entire BE to other system and boot it there - which I often do. Just use: # zfs send <ZFS-BE-DATASET@snap> | ssh <IP> zfs recv <ZFS-BE-DATASET> I also sometimes installed FreeBSD/GhostBSD system in a VM and then 'send' it to physical hardware. Hope that helps.
