Hello ! The gen 170 is okay not the next, i can not rebuild since :

It’s been 3 month i’ve been using nixos, it’s possibly a skill issue.
Thx for the help,
Sullivan

It would be helpful if you shared more information about your issue, like what do the logs show when failing and what's the trace?

If you look at the error logs shown by sudo nixos-rebuild build --show-trace you might get a better idea of what's causing the issue.
If you do not figure it out, please send the logs.

If you have your configs publicly available, it would also help if you shared a link to it.

Edit: just realized there's a dropdown menu with the logs, sorry.

I'm not an expert on NixOS related failures, so I can't help a lot.

Is it on purpose that gen 171,172,173 has a lower linux kernel version?
Maybe you added something that overrides it (perhaps from nixos-hardware)?

Have you lost the working config?
If you have version control over your configs, you might be able to do some diff-ing.
