Configuration for my VPS
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
This is the configuration for my virtual private server on
|
|
[OVH](https://www.ovh.com/). The system is managed using
|
|
[NixOS](https://nixos.org/).
|
|
|
|
From Debian to NixOS
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Out of the box, the server came with a Debian 10 installation, OVH does not
|
|
offer NixOS as an option for their servers. The part of the dicumentation on
|
|
[Installing from another Linux
|
|
distribution](https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html#sec-installing-from-other-distro)
|
|
on the same partition did work fine. The call to `nixos-generate-config` made
|
|
an initial configuration with `extlinux` as the boot loader but the VPS
|
|
actually uses Grub.
