5 years ago Thank you for spotting this problem, it appears nvme is addressed using p3 and not -part3 like regular disks. The script will need fixing on this. Unfortunately I'm pretty busy this week and not sure when I'll be able to get to it. If memory serves me correctly, if you do not use UEFI you might not have this problem, however.

5 years ago What about using /dev/disk/by-id ? (Not by-uuid)

5 years ago On further look it does look like you were able to make it farther by using id, [or uuid actually which I have never tried before], but I assume that is what worked and that makes sense. In fact it appears you were made it work all the way to the last step. If your Nix files do not bootstrap on a fresh install I cannot help with that, however.
Leaving this open so that i can fix the nvme issue

In
configuration.shI give themelios the raw disk at/dev/nvme0n1(the 1 at the end is not a partition). Themelios proceeds but then gives me an errorcannot resolve path '/dev/nvme0n1-part3'. Of course it cannot resolve that path, the third partition would be `/dev/nvme0n1p3".How do I fix this error?
