I'm using nixos-anywhere to install NixOS on a machine with 1GB of memory. During the Disko phase the /nix/store runs out of space (tmpfs filesystem running in memory). So I've taken to using a larger (30GB) external disk for swap. And this works, but when it gets to the reboot phase it fails. This is because I'm configuring zpools using Disko, and nixos-anywhere runs swapoff -a if it detects zpools. I understand this was added because of #420 (@TilCreator is using swap on a zpool) which makes sense... but maybe we can add a flag to disable this behavior. This flag would be useful when you are using swap for the install and not using swap on a zpool.
