+
+### Advanced Usage
+
+* If KVM is available, the installer exports the `DETERMINATE_NIX_KVM` environment variable set to 1.
+  If KVM is not available, `DETERMINATE_NIX_KVM` is set to 0.
+  This can be used in combination with GitHub Actions' `if` syntax for turning on and off steps.
+
+## Installation Differences
+
+Differing from the upstream [Nix](https://github.com/NixOS/nix) installer scripts:
+
+* In `nix.conf`:
+  + the `nix-command` and `flakes` features are enabled
+  + `bash-prompt-prefix` is set
+  + `auto-optimise-store` is set to `true` (On Linux only)
+  * `extra-nix-path` is set to `nixpkgs=flake:nixpkgs`
+  * `max-jobs` is set to `auto`
+* KVM is enabled by default.
+* an installation receipt (for uninstalling) is stored at `/nix/receipt.json` as well as a copy of the install binary at `/nix/nix-installer`
+* `nix-channel --update` is not run, `~/.nix-channels` is not provisioned
+* `ssl-cert-file` is set in `/etc/nix/nix.conf` if the `ssl-cert-file` argument is used.
