I've had /nix off the /root partition in many computers. You simply
need to mark in fileSystems the partition as:
neededForBoot = true;

I also had the 'nix' directory inside the /home partition, and then I
bind-mounted /home/nix to /nix, also using the neededForBoot mounts.

Thanks for this. After adding the secret dependecy "crc32c" to the initrd.kernelModules I got my system booting.

One question remains, how do I get fsck.btrfs available on bootup?

btrfsprogs provides btrfsck on my system profile. Do I have to use boot.initrd.extraUtilsCommands to copy it by hand to the initrd?
