linuxkit-builder

Installation (Development-style)

nix-build . -A linuxkit-builder
./result/bin/nix-linuxkit-configure

It'll write to:

~/.cache/nix-linuxkit-builder/, in particular ~/.cache/nix-linuxkit-builder/nix-state/console-ring is interesting
~root/.ssh/ for the SSH config
/etc/nix/machines
~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.nix-community.linuxkit-builder.plist

It should automatically start and stay running, but ...

You can force start it with:

launchctl start org.nix-community.linuxkit-builder

You can force stop it with:

launchctl stop org.nix-community.linuxkit-builder

If after you stop it you may want to check for processes, like:

pgrep vpnkit
pgrep linuxkit
pgrep hyperkit

If something goes wrong and it didn't stop propery, you can try:

pkill -F ~/.cache/nix-linuxkit-builder/nix-state/hyperkit.pid hyperkit
