Hi.
Tried to install nix but am stuck with an issue I’m not able to resolve. Whenever I boot the system, it uses approx 5min on the boot-up of Nixos Stage #1 as seen in the picture. After a while it will boot into the system but without a GUI. I’ve done the installation twice, with different isos to make sure I didn’t do it wrong. It only works if I downgrade to nixos 23.11, but if I update(+plasma 6) from there It results in the same problem.
The error is:
kernel: Acpi Error: Aborting method (long string) due to previous error (AE_AML_UNINITIALIZED_ELEMENT)
Have no idea what this error is, and there don’t seem to be alot of info on it. Reaching out here to see if anyone is able to help me troubleshoot this, as I would really like to try latest Nixos.
I ended up booting up bazzite, as I had to have a working computer for today. But ran the commands to see what it resulted in, but not sure what to make of the logs. However when trying to install other .iso’s late last night i kept seeing the ACPI errors over and over again, which has me thinking this is a problem with my hardware setup, as you suggested. I have the AMD RX 6700 X card.
Journalctl command results in this; https://0x0.st/Xt2e.txt
