The installation guide does not mention the need to mount /boot before installation. The above link refers to installing Gummiboot on archlinux, where the OS has already been installed, which is a very different situation. Besides that, when installing NixOS from the installation media, there is alread a /boot directory, although it probably refers to the boot from the installation media, not the one for the installed system. And in a previous installation I have done a few months ago, it worked without the need of any additional action regarding /boot. So it seems there is a bug in the installation process. > On Apr 27, 2014 2:15 PM, "José Romildo Malaquias" <j.romi...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > Hello. > > > > When installation NixOS unstable on my x86_64 notebook, I am getting > > the error > > > > Failed to check file system type of /boot: No such file or directory > > > > The log file is attached, as well as the configuration I am using. > > > > A few months ago I had successfully installed NixOS unstalbe on this > > system without any major issues. > > > > I have followed the instructions in the manual at > > > > http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/trunk-combined/nixos.manual.x86_64-linux/latest/download-by-type/doc/manual > > > > Any clues? _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
