disko
=====
nix-powered automatic disk partitioning
Usage
=====
Master Boot Record
------------------
This is how your iso configuation may look like
/etc/nixos/tsp-disk.json (TODO: find the correct disk)
```json
{
"type": "devices",
"content": {
"sda": {
"type": "table",
"format": "msdos",
"partitions": [{
"type": "partition",
"start": "1M",
"end": "100%",
"bootable": true,
"content": {
"type": "filesystem",
"format": "ext4",
"mountpoint": "/"
}
}]
}
}
}
```
/etc/nixos/configuration.nix
```nix
{ pkgs, ... }:
let
disko = (builtins.fetchGit {
url = https://cgit.lassul.us/disko/;
rev = "88f56a0b644dd7bfa8438409bea5377adef6aef4";
}) + "/lib";
cfg = builtins.fromJSON ./tsp-disk.json;
in {
imports = [
<nixpkgs/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-minimal.nix>
];
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs;[
(pkgs.writeScriptBin "tsp-create" (disko.create cfg))
(pkgs.writeScriptBin "tsp-mount" (disko.mount cfg))
];
## Optional: Automatically creates a service which runs at startup to perform the partitioning
#systemd.services.install-to-hd = {
# enable = true;
# wantedBy = ["multi-user.target"];
# after = ["getty@tty1.service" ];
# serviceConfig = {
# Type = "oneshot";
# ExecStart = [ (disko.create cfg) (disk.mount cfg) ];
# StandardInput = "null";
# StandardOutput = "journal+console";
# StandardError = "inherit";
# };
#};
}
```
After `nixos-rebuild switch` this will add a `tsp-create` and a `tsp-mount`
command:
- **tsp-create**: creates & formats the partitions according to `tsp-disk.json`
- **tsp-mount**: mounts the partitions to `/mnt`
GUID Partition Table, LVM and dm-crypt
