Im trying the installation guide but I am failing on the first step which is the installation of nix package manager with this command.
curl https://nixos.org/nix/install
I got the following error
#!/bin/sh
# This script installs the Nix package manager on your system by
# downloading a binary distribution and running its installer script
# (which in turn creates and populates /nix).
{ # Prevent execution if this script was only partially downloaded
oops() {
echo "$0:" "$@" >&2
exit 1
}
tmpDir="$(mktemp -d -t nix-binary-tarball-unpack.XXXXXXXXXX || \
