The VirtualBox VM should be configured with the following: + +CPU +:As many physical (non-SMT) cores as your CPU has ideally, since NixOS does need to build things occasionally. + +RAM +:8GB is probably a good starting point.

This might need to be bigger, given how disk intensive NixOS can be. + +Network +:My testing NIC was configured in VirtualBox to use NAT and virtio-net. + +Other +:This configuration works best if you also enable the bidirectional shared clipboard functionality under General -> Advanced. + +### Installation + +You can download the minimal ISO image from https://nixos.org/download/ to start.
