[Nix-dev] How to use a previous build from hydra-server

[rohit yadav]

Hi Rok,

Thanks for reply. How should I fetch it? I mean how to tell the system to
use that particular build? Currently, when I say nixos-rebuild {boot |
switch} it assumes that that <nixpkgs> (which again I am not sure which one
it refers to when I have to two channels listed) would tell it the right
hash and it would fetch that from the server. I dunno know how to by-pass
that and directly fetch any particular build from hydra. Could you please
elaborate on this or refer to the documentation where it is described in
more detail.

Thanks,
Rohit
