Alright! We have our first nix at /nix/store/8lza1b8nnci8lmm4q68p0l33pg975s0q-nix-2.35.4
Just finished getting the nix database ready.
~~> Setting up shell profiles: /etc/bashrc /etc/profile.d/nix.sh /etc/zshrc /etc/bash.bashrc /etc/zsh/zshrc
cat: /etc/bashrc: Permission denied
# Nix
if [ -e '/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.sh' ]; then

# End Nix

Oh no, something went wrong. If you can take all the output and open
an issue, we'd love to fix the problem so nobody else has this issue.
:(
We'd love to help if you need it.

ls -ls /etc/bashrc

sudo cat /etc/bashrc
# Nix
if [ -e '/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.sh' ]; then
. '/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.sh'
fi
# End Nix
Seems that if it doesn't exit it gets created as root but then is cat as normal user again?
