[Nix-dev] Question about chroot & nixos-install

[Peter Simons]

Hi Christian,

 > I think installing NixOS into a mountpoint from another OS (where
 > just nixpkgs available) is a common situation. Anyone to present a
 > workable procedure?

https://nixos.org/wiki/How_to_install_NixOS_from_Linux describes how to
do that using a Live-CD ISO.

https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/#sec-building-cd describes how to build
your own ISO from Nixpkgs.

Best regards,
Peter
