Before a NixOS definition can be deployed, some prerequite preparational steps must be performed.
1. Manually install NixOS on the physical machine. This could potentially be automated in the future with [nixos-anywhere](https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-anywhere), but for now this is a manual process.
2. Enable SSH and install authorized keys.
3. Ensure Python3 is installed for Ansible.
4. Run Ansible playbook which deploys secrets `ansible-playbook deploy_secrets.yml`.
