Omitting disko phase still requires me to define a disko script

command and error

host=my_host
ip=192.168.1.100

nix run github:nix-community/nixos-anywhere -- --phases kexec,install,reboot --flake .#$host root@$ip

error: flake 'git+file:///home/j/nixcfg' does not provide attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.nixosConfigurations."my_host".config.system.build.diskoScript', 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.nixosConfigurations."my_host".config.system.build.diskoScript' or 'nixosConfigurations."my_host".config.system.build.diskoScript'

I want to do my own partitioning. I mount new target for install to /mnt and /mnt/boot as per nixos defaults.

Am I breaking things trying to remove the disko phase?

I think you need to provide some own logic anyway if you also do kexec. Otherwise you boot into a new machine that doesn't have anything mounted. We should probably not build disko if we omit the disko phase. But than you would need to do first the kexec part only, followed by your own manual partitioning and than install + reboot.

I quickly tested this installing to a virtual machine and I'm not getting the same error now, thanks. I thought I had opened this issue in nixos-anywhere, guess not.

I'll close this now, as the PR that fixes this has been merged.
