Hi all,
I’m trying to install the Nix package manager, one of its requisites being able to read and write the /nix directory.
However, the / directory in MicroOS is read-only, so I tried following this guide: Reddit - Dive into anything (`sudo transactional-update run ‘mksubvolume /nix’), but I’ve got:
...

If I enter a transactional-update shell and run mksubvolume /nix (which is discouraged by the user rbrownsuse in the Reddit post, it will complain I’m trying to create a subvolume in a chroot environment and fail – which I suspect is the same thing is happening when using the run general command.
If anyone successfully installed Nix, I’d appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
Thanks!
