Updating the System
With Flakes, updating the system is straightforward. Simply execute the following commands in /etc/nixos
or any other location where you keep the configuration:
shell
# Update flake.lock
nix flake update
# Apply the updates
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .
Occasionally, you may encounter a "sha256 mismatch" error when running nixos-rebuild switch
. This error can be resolved by updating flake.lock
using nix flake update
.
