That's interesting. What does diskutil info disk3s7 say about the disk? Is this an organization-managed device?

[Phoeenix05]

I'm sorry, I cannot provide more info as I decided to use the official nix installer right after I made this report. But no this is my own MacBook not organization managed. If it helps my MacBook is a base 14" M1 Pro.

Also, I upgraded to Sequoia and reset my machine before installing nix.

Trying to install on a completely fresh MBP 14", 2001 (with M1 Pro CPU) using running Sequoia (15.1.1).

Fails immediately with this output:

Yes, it is a machine that's managed by an organization.
