NixOS Proxmox Template Base

This folder contains a minimal NixOS base config you can copy into a new template VM build.

Files

• flake.nix: pins nixos-24.11 and exposes one host config.
• configuration.nix: base settings for Proxmox guest use.

Before first apply

1. Replace REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSH_PUBLIC_KEY in configuration.nix.
2. Add hardware-configuration.nix from the VM install:
   • nixos-generate-config --root /
   • copy /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix next to configuration.nix

Build/apply example inside the VM

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#template

Notes

• This is intentionally minimal and avoids cloud-init assumptions.
• If you want host-specific settings, create additional modules and import them.
