Description

  • Resize root partition to the remaining of SD card as being done in the nixos/rpi example.
  • Also include wget package

Patch is based from:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/installer/sd-card/sd-image.nix#L258-L282

which uses the flag -f /nix-path-registration to do some nix maintenance task and ensures everything is done only in initial boot by removing nix-path-registration at the end.

The nix-path-registration is being generated when creating an ext4 root file system
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/lib/make-ext4-fs.nix#L56
This allows to import Nix DB in first boot so that nix commands work and know what's installed.

Closes #16

Test Log:

-bash-5.2# df -h

This is something not-os provided by default. Will remove strace.
