NIXOS_INSTALL.asciidoc

Choose interactive shell to fix "/dev/sdc: No medium found" errors in stage 1. Then the fix is the following:

  • find proper device by dmesg | grep 'logical blocks' to find device for your USB drive. Say it is /dev/sdb.

  • Now mount it at /mnt-root/iso: mount /dev/sbd1 /mnt-root/iso.
