-Yes, that's a good approach! You can test the build without actually applying it in a few ways:
-
-1. Build without applying using `nixos-rebuild`:
-
-```bash
-# Build only, don't switch
-nixos-rebuild build --flake .#steamdeck
-
-# Build for a remote system
-nixos-rebuild build --flake .#steamdeck --target-host root@remote-ip
-```
-
-2. Check evaluation:
-```bash
-# Check if the configuration evaluates without building
-nix flake check
-
-# More detailed evaluation
-nix eval .#nixosConfigurations.steamdeck.config.system.build.toplevel
-```
-
-Since there's no sensitive data yet, it's a good time to test the basic structure. Secret management can be added later when needed.
-
-Would you like help setting up the remote build testing? We would need to:
-1. Ensure SSH access to the remote machine
-2. Configure the remote builder
-3. Set up necessary permissions/access
-
-Also, there's a feature in nixos-rebuild called `--build-host` that could be useful - it lets you build on a more powerful machine while targeting another system.
-
-Would you like me to provide the specific commands and configurations for any of these testing approaches?
