In HDNix, we mount rpool/local/root to / and wipe it on every boot. The "real" system is reconstructed by NixOS upon activation. Only /home and a few select directories (like /var/lib/docker or game libraries) persist on the disk.

This means if you break your config, you simply revert the commit. If the machine is stolen, the data is mathematically inaccessible without the ZFS key.

However, a niche segment exists for users who want to transform a low-power PC into a dedicated, high-definition media center. HDNix emerged as a specialized solution within this space—a minimalist, Arch-based distribution optimized specifically for playing high-definition video on resource-constrained hardware.
