Just to let you know I'm doing a happy dance right now :-)
Great stuff!
Wout.

Hi everybody,
Since the sprint in Ljubljana until now, I've been working on npm2nix's
issues. I basically reengineered most of it (e.g. rewritten it to
JavaScript and modularized it a bit further) and I think the implementation
is fairly complete now. I've incorporated as much of Shea's
NILFS2 is a log-structured filesystem which is now in the Linux kernel source
tree, and supported by GRUB2. It should appeal to NixOS users because it
avoids destructive update (changing a file produces a new version of the
file).
I have installed NixOS with all filesystems on NILFS2, but
I would like to set up a nix build server, particularly for use with nixops.
Is there a definitive document about how to do this, including cross-platform
builds (e.g. ARM) ?
Can it be done declaratively, or does one need to set environment variables ?
So far I have found the following

Hi,
i was wondering if anyone on this list has any experiences running nixos on the
latest macbook air.
I googled and searched the nixos wiki for some info on this but could not find
anything. I just wonder
if there are problems that others have run into during the process that can be

not answering your question: nixos runs fine on a MacBook Pro 9.2.

Hi,
Out of curiosity, I wonder what happens if the garbage collection

(nix-build or nix-env -i), both operating on the same store at the same
time.
In particular, the collector may remove a path that is a dependency of a

Well, I got it working (no cross-build yet) using nix.buildMachines as
described here:
Check out https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/src/libstore/gc.cc,
particularly addTempRoot (which is called by nix before any new nix path
is written or considered valid) and openGCLock.
The answer to what happens is that invariants are preserved, though
possibly at the cost of a long wait.
