Nixos minimal ISO is missing 'wget'.

In order to get the old configuration.nix I used wget "http://example.com" -dump > configuration.nix

How about curl? That's installed.

@peti how about wget?

$  nix-env -iA nixos.wget

install log:

Yes, thanks to the union mount you can run such commands on the installation ISO and thus get whatever tools you want (assuming your internet works).
