11:29 <l33_> i want to delpoy to alreadt running nixos machine..... is there's a setup guide.

12:50 <gchristensen> basically just copy the configuration.nix and hardware-configuration.nix to your nixops network, use https://nixos.org/nixops/manual/#opt-deployment.targetEnv set to "none"

13:03 <l33_> hmmm... i don't think it's that simple.

13:03 <l33_> just trying to get my head around it

13:03 <l33_> nixos tends to blow unix admins minds..

13:03 <l33_> probably why i'm still liking it.

13:04 <l33_> the learning curve is steep, like climbing a black hole.

13:04 <l33_> rather then everest.

13:05 <gchristensen> heh

13:05 <gchristensen> so, building a NixOS system doesn't look at the system at all -- everything it does is described by the configuration.nix, hardware-configuration.nix, and the version of nixpkgs you have

13:06 <gchristensen> so you can trivially build a system on the computer itself, or on any other computer too

14:11 <l33_> *i know* ;-)

14:14 <gchristensen> :D
