Re: [Nix-dev] Has someone a working setup for Kernel development with NixOS?

Hi, so here is what I've got so far... maybe my approach is nonsense, but I don't know that (yet... feel free to point me to a better one). It doesn't work, though, as I get: error: value is a function while a set was expected and I don't know why. Here is my custom-kernel.nix. The
