Switching to the Multi-user Installer
Welcome to the Multi-User Nix Installation
This installation tool will set up your computer with the Nix package
manager. 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?

---- let's talk about sudo -----------------------------------------------------
This script is going to call sudo a lot. Every time I do, it'll
output exactly what it'll do, and why.
Just like this:
---- sudo execution ------------------------------------------------------------
I am executing:
$ sudo echo
to demonstrate how our sudo prompts look
This might look scary, but everything can be undone by running just a
few commands. I used to ask you to confirm each time sudo ran, but it
was too many times. Instead, I'll just ask you this one time:
Can I use sudo?

Yay! Thanks! Let's get going!
~~> Fixing any leftover Nix volume state
Before I try to install, I'll check for any existing Nix volume config
and ask for your permission to remove it (so that the installer can
start fresh). I'll also ask for permission to fix any issues I spot.
---- Found existing Nix volume -------------------------------------------------
special: disk1s7
uuid: 995EA8A2-3C09-4A8A-9B64-13FF4C3A9EB0
encrypted: no
~~> Checking for artifacts of previous installs
Before I try to install, I'll check for signs Nix already is or has
been installed on this system.
---- oh no! --------------------------------------------------------------------
I back up shell profile/rc scripts before I add Nix to them.
I need to back up /etc/zshrc to /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix,
but the latter already exists.
Here's how to clean up the old backup file:
1. Back up (copy) /etc/zshrc and /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix
to another location, just in case.
2. Ensure /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix does not have anything
Nix-related in it. If it does, something is probably quite
wrong. Please open an issue or get in touch immediately.
3. Once you confirm /etc/zshrc is backed up and
/etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix doesn't mention Nix, run:
mv /etc/zshrc.backup-before-nix /etc/zshrc
We'd love to help if you need it.
