Tested on arubacloud: working with `doNetConf=y` #189

Today I tested nixos-infect on a VPN instance provided by https://www.arubacloud.com/ (one of the major Italian cloud providers). I started off with an Ubuntu 22.04 LTS image.

It wouldn't work with the default configuration and after a rescue boot I found out that networking was not configured properly.

So, in the end, I added PROVIDER=hetznercloud and this seems to work. I ran it with:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elitak/nixos-infect/master/nixos-infect | PROVIDER=hetznercloud NIX_CHANNEL=nixos-23.11 bash -x

You might want to add this to the documentation or keep this issue for interested people.
