Then move the resulting `/mnt/etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix` to `./hardware/<config>.nix`.
Update the configuration according to the script output, if necessary. Btrfs mount options likely need to be added, for example.

Reference this hardware config in a `nixosConfigurations.<config>` section in `flake.nix`.
To install run the following command where `<config>` matches `outputs.nixosConfigurations.<config>` in `flake.nix`:
```sh
nixos-install --flake '/etc/nixos#<config>'
nixos-install --flake '/mnt/etc/nixos#<config>'
