Hm, that's very strange. At first glance, this looks similar to https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/issues/520 and https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/6499 (aside from being different services that are failing) -- could you try running the following and then attempting to install again?

sudo launchctl enable system/org.nixos.darwin-store

This was encountered after an unsuccessful uninstall on a colleague's laptop, so I'm sure it's related to that.

After running the uninstaller the nix store had to be manually deleted (via Disk Utility) and the config in `/etc/fstab/ was also manually removed. There was one more thing that needed cleanup (recommended by the installer) which I can't recall right now!

Afterward a restart the installer was run again with: curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install macos

Which is when the error occurred.

I believe they've managed to resolve the issue now, but I don't have to hand exactly what they did.

Additional log info missing from the initial report:
