BIOS configuration

For booting fom emmc: XHCI enabled

NixOS crypt setup

Encrypted NixOS via standard installer by Nov.2022 (v22.05) but changed ext4 root filesystem to btrfs after installation.
Before reboot you can unmount the new installation-system partitions. Then you can simply convert the ext4-filesystem with

btrfs-convert /dev/mapper/luks-btrfs

With blkid you can get the new UUID for the converted logical volume and copy in hardware-configuration.nix file:

hardware-configuration.nix

fileSystems."/" =
    { device = "/dev/disk/by-uuid/d11cd5b3-8a41-42d0-b671-04efbdd8b18b";
      fsType = "btrfs";
      options = [ "subvolid=5" "subvol=/" ];
      neededForBoot = true;
    };
 
  boot.initrd.luks.devices."luks-btrfs".device = "/dev/disk/by-uuid/085ffcdf-5a5c-43fc-9231-eed8b5d0bbd4";

changed also

configuration.nix

added here also (maybe not needed?)

  boot.initrd.supportedFilesystems = ["btrfs"];

After changing the config, you have to run nixos-rebuild boot and nixos-rebuild switch
