This QEMU image is not (yet) comparable to NixOS, because the latter provides
extra features, such as whole-system configuration (including services, etc.),
and whole-system transactional update and rollback. It is is cross-built using
Nix, and because of that, it uses per-package installation directories under
`/nix/store`.
# IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2013-02-04
<braunr> is it possible to use nix ?
<braunr> or nixos
<civodul> you mean the Nix-based Hurd image?
<braunr> yes
<civodul> it's currently broken:
http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/hurd-master
<braunr> aw, nixos uses systemd :(
<civodul> yeah, but the Hurd image is a different thing
<civodul> is uses runsystem.sh™
<civodul> (my favorite)
<civodul> i've been willing to unbreak it, but now i rather invest time in
Guix
