NixOS Workstation

I just followed Misterio77/nix-starter-configs

Install commands

• Setup filesystem. I used this guide
  • I added a swap BTRFS subvolume as well (can do after running nixos-enter into the mounted partitions after installing)
• regenerate hardware-configuration by running nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config and copy to ./nixos/hardware-configuration.nix
• run the flake command: nixos-rebuild switch --use-remote-sudo --flake .#asus-vivobook
• setup password for stephen
• switch user and run home-manager

Other setup

• dotfiles using chezmoi
• Plasma
  • setup new activity
  • import window rules
  • add tmux and thunderbird autostart
• Thunderbird
  • backup from old computer by running the command: tar --create --gzip --verbose --file thunder.tar.gz ~/.thunderbird/
  • run Thunderbird once on the new computer and untar all files to the newly created profile at ~/.thunderbird/

TODO

• setup SSH keys
• steam and lutris
• mpv plugins
• megasync
• retroarch
