I cannot run the 'trivial.nix' example from http://hydra.nixos.org/build/18990240/download/1/manual/manual.html#idm140737319352096 "Deploying a VirtualBox VM" on MacOS Yosemite 10.10.
The VM starts (I see a login screen), but the build process quits with -------8<------- building path(s) ‘/nix/store/bi03qqi8c9skmhkvc0iwdizdm054rxi4-stdenv-linux-boot’ error: a ‘x86_64-linux’ is required to build ‘/nix/store/6giy9b7xg90p8pqm6f056jqdwdx36jj6-stdenv-linux-boot.drv’, but I am a ‘x86_64-darwin’ error: unable to build all machine configurations -------->8------------ I am new to nix, so maybe I have wrong expectations. Isn't the 'trivial.nix' example supposed to work on MacOS? I will appreciate any input. Steps to reproduce: I've installed nix following the instructions at https://nixos.org/wiki/Nix_on_OS_X "Using the Testing Branch" I then installed nixops following the instructions at http://nixos.org/nixops/ "Getting it", which is just nix-env -i nixops I can provide the complete output. -Andreas _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
