ThinkPad T480
CPU: Intel i5-8350U
RAM: 16GB planned (8GB stock + 8GB SO-DIMM)
SSD: 256GB NVMe stock; disko assumes /dev/nvme0n1
Installation notes
This host uses disko with GPT + unencrypted EFI System Partition + LUKS + Btrfs subvolumes.
Before formatting, verify the target disk:
lsblk
If the internal drive is not /dev/nvme0n1, edit host/Inaho/disko.nix first.
For a 2.5" SATA SSD/HDD it will usually be /dev/sda.
Then partition, format and mount:
sudo nix --experimental-features "nix-command flakes" run github:nix-community/disko/latest -- \
--mode destroy,format,mount ./host/Inaho/disko.nix
This destroys the selected disk.
After that install the host:
sudo nixos-install --flake .#Inaho
The flake contains a new disko input. If flake.lock has not been updated yet, run:
nix flake lock --update-input disko
After first boot
Update firmware, especially BIOS/UEFI and Thunderbolt, when batteries are installed and charged:
sudo fwupdmgr refresh
sudo fwupdmgr get-updates
sudo fwupdmgr update
