[Nix-dev] nixos-rebuild hangs

[Andrew Morsillo]

After building the latest ISO and installing on a virtual machine doing
nixos-checkout then nixos-rebuild switch causes the terminal to hang while
executing "nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/system -f /etc/nixos/nixos --set
-A system" in the nixos-rebuild script. I am at a loss as to how this can be
resolved or even what the problem is.

 The only output given (even when the nix-env command is set to verbose) is
"obtaining list of Nix archives at '
http://nix.cs.uu.nl/dist/nix/channels-v3/nixpkgs-unstable/MANIFEST.bz2'...
2433 store paths in manifest  store derivation is /nix/store/(hash)-
nix-0.12pre10798.drv   /nix/store/(hash)-nix-0.12pre10798"
