Did you have Nix installed at some point in the past? Could you see if /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.darwin-store.plist exists, and if it does, its contents? Could you also see if darwin-store appears in the output of sudo launchctl print-disabled system?

I did have it installed; I purged a bunch of things and got it working eventually. Unfortunately, I don't remember which exact thing I removed to make it past this error. Most of the other errors in the installer log were very helpful (e.g. remove things from fstab or disk utility or delete a user), but this error was not as clear on what I should remove.

Feel free to close. Thank you for responding.

If you run into this again and can provide more information, I'd be glad to debug further! But for now I am going to close this. Thanks!
