@@ -5,38 +5,52 @@ Nix has two different modes of operation:
 ## Daemon mode for multi-user setup
 
 This is recommended by upstream and more seamless.
+The `nix-daemon` requires functioning systemd.
 
-Just install the `nix` or `nix-daemon` package
-(the latter is recommended by the `nix` package) and run:
+Just install the `nix` package, which pulls in `nix-daemon`,
+by running:
 ```
-$ sudo dnf install nix-daemon
+$ sudo dnf install nix nix-daemon
 $ sudo systemctl enable --now nix-daemon
 ```
 
 ## Single-user mode without nix-daemon
 
-This mode works in rootless containers without systemd.
+This mode also works in rootless containers and without systemd.
 
 Run:
 ```
-$ sudo dnf install nix nix-system --exclude nix-daemon
-$ sudo usermod -G nixbld -a $USER
+$ sudo dnf install nix --exclude nix-daemon
+$ sudo usermod -aG nixbld $USER
 ```
+and restart your login session:
+make sure the `nixbld` group appears in `id` output.
 
-Alternatively you can try this hack to have the nix store within your homedir:
+This avoids the need to run nix-daemon.
+
+## Rootless nix store under /home
+
+Alternatively one can run rootless nix (which uses chroots) with just:
 ```
-$ dnf install nix nix-filesystem --exclude nix-daemon --exclude nix-system
-$ sudo ln -s ~/.local/share/nix/root/nix/store /nix/
+$ dnf install nix-core nix-legacy
 ```
-(the symlink is needed for interactive bash - otherwise one gets error like:
-`error: executing shell '/nix/store/2j7r5np0vaz4cnqkymp1mqivmjj1x9xl-bash-interactive-5.3p3/bin/bash': No such file or directory`).
-(Note this only works without `/nix/var/nix/`.)
+The user nix store is: `~/.local/share/nix/root/nix/store`.
+
+This also allows sharing one's nix store with toolboxes, etc.
+However then nix profiles can only be used inside nix shells.
+
+## Nixpkgs
+You may want to setup a default nix channel.
+```
+$ nix-channel add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-25.11 nixpkgs
+```
+for legacy commands, if you don't want to use rolling nixos-unstable.
 
 # Testing
 
 A simple way to check nix is working is to run e.g. `nix-shell -p hello`.
