lan-party-netboot

This repo builds a NixOS image with a bunch of games pre installed that can be network booted on multiple physical machines for a lan party.

How to run

  1. Compile the netboot image and pixiecore script:
nix build -f pixiecore.nix -v -o /tmp/build --argstr nfsIp 192.168.122.1

Replace the IP with that of your machine.

You may also have to open some ports in your firewall, check out the nixos documentation.

  1. Extract your game directory somewhere and edit nfs-server.nix to point the "data" bindMount to it.

  2. Build and run the nfs-server container:

sudo extra-container create --start < ./nfs-server.ni

Again you may have to open ports in your firewall:

sudo iptables -w -I nixos-fw -p udp -m multiport --dports 111,2049,4000,4001,4002,20048 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -w -I nixos-fw -p tcp -m multiport --dports 111,2049,4000,4001,4002,20048 -j ACCEPT
  1. Run pixiecore:
sudo $(realpath /tmp/build/run-pixiecore)
