Aha. That should probably be mentioned in the manual under the
"Single-user mode" section[1] of the manual.
Already a pull request: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/72 :)
It might also be nice if that could be autodetected by the
'nix-finish-install' script and setup properly. I was also thrown off
the trail because this wasn't the case with nix 1.1.

This is because by default, Nix only looks in
/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/binary-caches/* for
binary cache
URLs. So it only checks the channels added by root. There is an
option
"binary-caches-files" to overide this.
