For some values of workable. When I first stumbled on these instructions
I was kinda surprised. I appreciate NixOS is not for Aunt Tilly, but
fiddle with mounting ISO images and unpacking squashfs' just to
install a Linux OS anno 2016?
I guess I'm spoiled by Debian's [1]multistrap, which installs Debian in
a directory in 30 seconds by just running 'multistrap -f newos.conf'
