This script aims to install NixOS on Digital Ocean droplets, Vultr servers, or
OVH Virtual Private Servers (starting from distros that these services support
out of the box).
This script - is a modded version of original [nixos-infect](https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect). It have been revritten to suit needs of SelfPrivacy project. Except transforming your Ubuntu Linux system into NixOS GNU/Linux, it deploys standart services that SelfPrivacy offers to their customers.
## Source Distros
This script has been tested and can install NixOS from the following source distros:
On Digital Ocean:
- Fedora 24 x64
- Fedora 33 x64
- Ubuntu 20.04 x64
On Vultr:
- Ubuntu 18.10 x64
On OVH Virtual Private Servers (experimental):
- Debian
On Hetzner cloud:
- Ubuntu 18.04
- Ubuntu 20.04
YMMV with any other hoster + image combination.
If you have a OpenVZ based virtualization solution then this, or any other OS takeover script will not work, this is fundamental to how OpenVZ works.
On Scaleway cloud:
- Ubuntu 20.04

```
## Vultr
To set up a NixOS Vultr server, instantiate an Ubuntu box with the following "Startup Script":
```bash
#!/bin/sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elitak/nixos-infect/master/nixos-infect | NIX_CHANNEL=nixos-20.03 bash
```
Allow for a few minutes over the usual Ubuntu deployment time for NixOS to download & install itself.
## Hetzner cloud
Hetzner cloud works out of the box. When creating a server provide the following script as "User data" (this has been tested using Ubuntu 20.04 as a base OS).
