+# Disko quickstart
+
+This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing NixOS on a single
+disk system using Disko.
+
+- 1. Download NixOS ISO images from the NixOS download page
+(https://nixos.org/download.html#nixos-iso) and create a bootable USB drive
+following the instructions in [Section 2.4.1 "Booting from a USB flash drive"](https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#sec-booting-from-usb)
+of the NixOS manual.
+
+- 2. Identify the name of your system disk by using the lsblk command.
+
+```
+$ lsblk
+NAME        MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS
+nvme0n1     259:0    0   1,8T  0 disk
+```
+
+In this example, an empty NVME SSD with 2TB space is shown as "nvme0n1" disk.
+Please note that Disko will reformat the entire disk and overwrite any existing
+partitions. Dual booting with other operating systems is not supported.
+
+
+- 3. Choose a disk layout from the [examples directory](https://github.com/nix-community/disko/tree/master/example)
+
+For those who are unsure of which layout to pick, use the hybrid configuration
+found at https://github.com/nix-community/disko/blob/master/example/hybrid.nix
+and save it as `/tmp/disko-config.nix`. This layout is compatible with both BIOS
+and EFI systems.
+
+- 4. The following step will reformat your disk and mount it to `/mnt`. Replace
+   `<disk-name>` with the name of your disk obtained in step 1.
+
+Please note: This will erase any existing data on your disk.
+
+```
+$ sudo nix run github:nix-community/disko -- --mode zap_create_mount /tmp/disko-config.nix --arg disks '[ "/dev/<disk-name>" ]'
+```
+
+For example, if the disk name is `nvme0n1`:
+
+```
+$ sudo nix run github:nix-community/disko -- --mode zap_create_mount /tmp/disko-config.nix --arg disks '[ "/dev/nvme0n1" ]'
+```
+
+
+After executing the command, the file systems will be mounted. You can verify
+this by running the following command:
+
+```
+$ mount | grep /mnt
+/dev/nvme0n1p1 on /mnt type ext4 (rw,relatime,stripe=2)
+/dev/nvme0n1p2 on /mnt/boot type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)
+```
+
+- 5. Generate and modify the NixOS configuration:
+
+You now need to create a file `/mnt/etc/nixos/configuration.nix` that specifies
+the intended configuration of the system. This is because NixOS has a
+declarative configuration model: you create or edit a description of the desired
+configuration of your system, and then NixOS takes care of making it happen. The
+syntax of the NixOS configuration file is described in
+[Chapter 6, Configuration Syntax](https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#sec-configuration-syntax),
+while a list of available configuration options appears in
+[Appendix A, Configuration Options](https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options.html).
+A minimal example is shown in
+[Example: NixOS Configuration](https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#ex-config).
+
+The command nixos-generate-config can generate an initial configuration file for
+you.
+
+```
+$ nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --root /mnt
+```
+
+We will include `--no-filesystems` the flag here so it won't add any filesystem
+mountpoints to the generated `/mnt/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix` since
+we will re-use our disko configuration for that.
+
+Next move the disko configuration as well to /etc/nixos
+
+```
+$ mv /tmp/disko-config.nix /mnt/etc/nixos
+```
+
+You should then edit /mnt/etc/nixos/configuration.nix to suit your needs
+
+```
+$ nano /mnt/etc/nixos/configuration.nix
+```
+
+While being in this file also add the disko nixos module as well as the
+disko-config.nix in the imports section of your generated configuration:
+
+```
+imports =
+ [ # Include the results of the hardware scan.
+   ./hardware-configuration.nix
+   "${builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/nix-community/disko/archive/master.tar.gz"}/module.nix"
+   (pkgs.callPackage ./disko-config.nix {
+     disks = ["/dev/<disk-name>"]; # replace this with your disk name i.e. /dev/nvme0n1
+   })
+ ];
+```
+
+If you went for the hybrid-partition scheme, than choose grub as a bootloader.
+Otherwise consult the NixOS manual. The following configuration for Grub works
+both EFI and BIOS systems. Add it to your configuration.nix while commenting out
+the existing lines about `systemd-boot`:
+
+```
+# ...
+   #boot.loader.systemd-boot.enable = true;
+   #boot.loader.efi.canTouchEfiVariables = true;
+   # replace this with your disk i.e. /dev/nvme0n1
+   boot.loader.grub.devices = [ "/dev/<disk-name>" ];
+   boot.loader.grub.enable = true;
+   boot.loader.grub.version = 2;
+   boot.loader.grub.efiSupport = true;
+   boot.loader.grub.efiInstallAsRemovable = true;
+# ...
+```
+
+Than finish the installation and reboot your machine
+
+```
+$ nixos-install
+$ reboot
+```
