SSH config:

You will need to set your admin username if it doesn't match your local username.

  User <youradminusername>

Deployment commands:

$ ./inv deploy

Install/Fix system from Hetzner recovery mode

  1. Copy your ssh key to the recovery system so that the kexec image can re-use it.
yourmachine> ssh-copy-id [email protected]
  1. Download and boot into kexec-image:
$ curl -L https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-images/releases/download/nixos-unstable/nixos-kexec-installer-x86_64-linux.tar.gz | tar -xzf- -C /root
$ /root/kexec/run

Fix up broken installations with disko-install

Disko install allows to update nixos configuration with out re-formatting, if the --mode parameter is set to mount. This assumes that the file system is still intact. --disk may need to be adjusted according to the concrete disko configuration. i.e. disks during installation may have different names than later in the recovery system. Use lsblk or /dev/disk/by-partlabel to reason about which disk is which.

$ ls -la /dev/disk/by-partlabel/

Debug VM

You can start a vm from the rescue system in order to debug the boot:

$ nix-shell -p qemu_kvm --run 'qemu-kvm -m 10G -hda /dev/sda -hdb /dev/sdb -curses -cpu host -enable-kvm'
