1 year ago Oh hmm, I ran the install script again and now it works... hopefully there are no issues with my new install. I wonder if the fact that I'm using fish affects things?

1 year ago Oh darn!
So it seems like we got an error at some point while deleting the APFS volume. I've not seen a "bus error: 10" before, but cursory searching suggests there is something to do with memory allocation involved. I suspect this is happening when we call diskutil at some point to delete the APFS volume.
I suspect the reason your install didn't work in the code below "Then I tried to reinstall, but that resulted in this error:" is because you actually ran uninstall! This is part of why we suggest you use /nix/nix-installer uninstall in the first error message you got!

1 year ago Ah yes, good catch! Silly me. Makes sense why the second time I tried to install it actually worked xD

1 year ago Have you confirmed rebooting that nix persists and works for you? If so, I'm really glad we got it working! I'll close the ticket. Thanks for reporting it!
If it doesn't work, please reopen the ticket and we'll get you sorted!

fish: Unknown command: nixDid you fix this issue somewhere? perhaps i'm not running the latest code?
Also, I don't have a reopen button, so I can't reopen the issue.

}Possibly this particular setup is messed up because i did it in bash then switched back to fish?
But nix is unavailable now in both fish and bash, so I'm thinking it's something else.

1 year ago So I do see one issue, apparently your disk is encrypted and the volume we're making is not. I guess our detection code is still not working even after https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/pull/361, that's really frustrating.
I am not sure if that is actually a problem for your Nix working or it's unrelated, but I need to fix that.
So it does look like you have the /nix path and the disk is mounted. So that means the likely culprit is the shell profiles.
I'm sorry but I need even more information! :sweat:
Do you happen to have it in your path?

1 year ago Hello,
I have encountered this issue too. It appears to stem from when the volume that the installer binary resides on is deleted from under it. This invalidates the memory mapping that the OS holds and executes the binary from, which causes the OS to be unable to read the memory containing the program during execution. This differs from a typical deletion, where the mapping is still technically available while the file is deleted, leading to the unusual error.
I've resolved it locally by copying the binary to a temporary directory before invoking it (and ensuring the rest of the env refers explicitly away from the Nix env that's about to be obliterated). Perhaps the installer could do this automatically.

1 year ago Sadly, I don't think that is the solution.
The initial error (https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/issues/400#issue-1652762538) used a curl downloaded version of the installer.
During uninstall we do move ourselves out of the /nix folder:
There are some cases where a user may manage to run a revert from a nix-installer inside the Nix store, and we should probably guard against those, but I am not sure that in this specific case that is the issue.

3 weeks ago I ran into the "bus error" described here when trying to uninstall on a Mac. ~My solution was to copy the installer somewhere where it won't get unmounted:~
cp /nix/nix-installer /tmp/nix-installer
/tmp/nix-installer uninstall[edit:] I just did another uninstall using this technique, and I'm still getting the bus error. Disregard this advice! 🤦♂️
Got this error after I installed nix, then rebooted. nix was unavailable in my shell after the reboot, so i tried to reinstall it. Got this message
so I tried uninstalling it
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- uninstall.This resulted in a new error:
Then I tried to reinstall, but that resulted in this error:
It appears I am now unable to install or uninstall Nix from my system.
So I clicked the link and here we are.
