Anyone know what might be going wrong with the nix-env invocation in the  
bootstrap attempt below?  This was following a "bash  
/mnt/nix/store/nixos-prepare-install checkout-sources" operation.


# bash /mnt/nix/store/run-in-chroot "/nix/store/nixos-bootstrap --install  
-j2 --keep-going --debug"
