Discovered on nixos, had to check it out.
Trying to install nixos-0.1pre15831-i686-linux on VirtualBox Mac OS X
I have followed the manual and have:
created ext3 filesystem on /dev/sda1 and swap on /dev/sda2
edited configuration.nix
run nixos-install
I have tried grubDevice "/dev/sda" and "/dev/sda1" all I get is the same
unable to boot hd (0,0)
i can always boot into the install/rescue iso and the install always fails
with this message:
100 418K
2267 store paths in manifest
error: [... snip ...] derivation named 'system' at
'/mnt/etc/nixos/nixos/system/system.nix:399:9';
more than a dozen lines ...
Also how are people copying and pasting these messages? all I get is a
shell prompt after I have logged in as root.
Thanks,
--gs ( 6+ hours spent so far )
