You need to create a :file:`configuration.nix` that describes your device
and the services that you want to run on it. Start by copying

In this command ``<liminix-config>`` points to your
``configuration.nix``, ``device`` is the file for your hardware device
:file:`configuration.nix`, ``device`` is the file for your hardware device
definition, and ``outputs.default`` will generate some kind of
Liminix image output appropriate to that device.
For the qemu device in this example, ``outputs.default`` is an alias

squashfs root image and a kernel. You can use the `mips-vm` command to

run this.
For the currently supported hardware devices, ``outputs.default``
