Switching to the Multi-user Installer
Welcome to the Multi-User Nix Installation
This installation tool will set up your computer with the Nix package
manager. This will happen in a few stages:
1. Make sure your computer doesn't already have Nix. If it does, I
will show you instructions on how to clean up your old install.
2. Show you what I am going to install and where. Then I will ask
if you are ready to continue.
3. Create the system users (uids [301..332]) and groups (gid 30000)
that the Nix daemon uses to run builds.
4. Perform the basic installation of the Nix files daemon.
5. Configure your shell to import special Nix Profile files, so you
can use Nix.
6. Start the Nix daemon.
Would you like to see a more detailed list of what I will do?
[y/n] y
I will:
- make sure your computer doesn't already have Nix files
(if it does, I will tell you how to clean them up.)
- create local users (see the list above for the users I'll make)
- create a local group (nixbld)
- install Nix in to /nix
- create a configuration file in /etc/nix
- set up the "default profile" by creating some Nix-related files in
/var/root
- back up /etc/bashrc to /etc/bashrc.backup-before-nix
- update /etc/bashrc to include some Nix configuration
- back up /etc/zshrc to /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix
- update /etc/zshrc to include some Nix configuration
- create a Nix volume and a LaunchDaemon to mount it
- create a LaunchDaemon (at /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist) for nix-daemon

---- let's talk about sudo -----------------------------------------------------
This script is going to call sudo a lot. Every time I do, it'll
output exactly what it'll do, and why.
Just like this:
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo echo
to demonstrate how our sudo prompts look
This might look scary, but everything can be undone by running just a
few commands. I used to ask you to confirm each time sudo ran, but it
was too many times. Instead, I'll just ask you this one time:
Can I use sudo?
[y/n] y
Yay! Thanks! Let's get going!
~~> Fixing any leftover Nix volume state
Before I try to install, I'll check for any existing Nix volume config
and ask for your permission to remove it (so that the installer can
start fresh). I'll also ask for permission to fix any issues I spot.
~~> Checking for artifacts of previous installs
Before I try to install, I'll check for signs Nix already is or has
been installed on this system.

---- Preparing a Nix volume ----------------------------------------------------
Nix traditionally stores its data in the root directory /nix, but
macOS now (starting in 10.15 Catalina) has a read-only root directory.
To support Nix, I will create a volume and configure macOS to mount it
at /nix.
~~> Configuring /etc/synthetic.conf to make a mount-point at /nix
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/bin/ex -u NONE -n /etc/synthetic.conf
to add Nix to /etc/synthetic.conf
~~> Creating a Nix volume
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil apfs addVolume disk3 APFS Nix Store -nomount
to create a new APFS volume 'Nix Store' on disk3
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force disk3s7
to ensure the Nix volume is not mounted
disk3s7 was already unmounted
~~> Configuring /etc/fstab to specify volume mount options
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/vifs
to add nix to fstab
~~> Encrypt the Nix volume
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil mount Nix Store
to mount your Nix volume for encrypting
Volume Nix Store on Nix Store mounted
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/bin/security -i
to add your Nix volume's password to Keychain
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil apfs encryptVolume Nix Store -user disk -stdinpassphrase
to actually encrypt your Nix volume
Encrypting with the new "Disk" crypto user on disk3s7
The new "Disk" user will be the only one who has initial access to disk3s7
The new APFS crypto user UUID will be BB210175-A86B-48D4-8977-F55777756533
Encryption has likely completed due to AES hardware; see "diskutil apfs list"
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force Nix Store
to unmount the encrypted volume
Volume Nix Store on disk3s7 force-unmounted
~~> Configuring LaunchDaemon to mount 'Nix Store'
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/bin/ex -u NONE -n /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.darwin-store.plist
to install the Nix volume mounter
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo launchctl bootstrap system /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.darwin-store.plist
to launch the Nix volume mounter
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo launchctl kickstart -k system/org.nixos.darwin-store
to launch the Nix volume mounter
~~> Setting up the build group nixbld
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/dseditgroup -o create -r Nix build group for nix-daemon -i 30000 nixbld
Create the Nix build group, nixbld
Created: Yes
~~> Setting up the build user _nixbld1

I am executing:
$ sudo /usr/bin/dscl . create /Users/_nixbld1 UniqueID 301
Creating the Nix build user (#1), _nixbld1

---- oh no! --------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh no, something went wrong. If you can take all the output and open
an issue, we'd love to fix the problem so nobody else has this issue.
:(
We'd love to help if you need it.
You can open an issue at
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/new?labels=installer&template=installer.md
Or get in touch with the community: https://nixos.org/community
Forgot I have a saved reply with a little more context :)
Sounds like you already have a user with the same UID (see #6153).
The easy workaround is deleting that user/users if you no longer use the software that needs them. If you still need them, there's an overview of how to find a different UID range and modify the installer in this comment:
