Looks like the script is stuck at await_volume https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/1cd48008f0e31b0d48ad745b69256d881201e5ee/scripts/create-darwin-volume.sh#L786-L791
await_volume() {
# caution: this could, in theory, get stuck
until /usr/sbin/diskutil info "$NIX_ROOT" &>/dev/null; do
:
done
}Not sure if this could help.
My $NIXROOT is empty.

4 days ago Roughly by design. It's an indication that the mounting service is failing to mount your store volume.
$NIX_ROOT is only set within the installer, so that's not a problem.
I guess I'd recommend following the uninstall instructions, reboot, and then try reinstalling it: https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/installation/uninstall.html#macos
If that doesn't fix it, it should at least help focus the search a little.
Platform
Additional information
I have been trying to install Nix package manger on my Mac and its stuck at this , I have tried like restarting os, removing packages and the installer just hung at that stage.

This will happen in a few stages: 1. Make sure your computer doesn't already have Nix. If it does, I will show you instructions on how to clean up your old install. 2. Show you what I am going to install and where. Then I will ask if you are ready to continue. 3. Create the system users (uids [351..382]) and groups (gid 350) that the Nix daemon uses to run builds. To create system users in a different range, exit and run this tool again with NIX_FIRST_BUILD_UID set. 4. Perform the basic installation of the Nix files daemon. 5. Configure your shell to import special Nix Profile files, so you can use Nix. 6. Start the Nix daemon. Would you like to see a more detailed list of what I will do? [y/n] y I will: - make sure your computer doesn't already have Nix files (if it does, I will tell you how to clean them up.) - create local users (see the list above for the users I'll make) - create a local group (nixbld) - install Nix in /nix - create a configuration file in /etc/nix - set up the "default profile" by creating some Nix-related files in /var/root - back up /etc/bashrc to /etc/bashrc.backup-before-nix - update /etc/bashrc to include some Nix configuration - back up /etc/zshrc to /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix - update /etc/zshrc to include some Nix configuration - back up /etc/bash.bashrc to /etc/bash.bashrc.backup-before-nix - update /etc/bash.bashrc to include some Nix configuration - create a Nix volume and a LaunchDaemon to mount it - create a LaunchDaemon (at /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist) for nix-daemon Ready to continue?
