However, according to what i've read in Wikipedia, Apple firmware updates use the EFI System Partition, so i am worried that a firmware update may break the NixOS boot loader. (Maybe this is not a big deal, but it would not look like a proper way to do it.) Do you know anything about it by any chance? Also, the recommeded ESP partition size was 500 MB, but mine is 200 MB, so i imagine a firmware update might not have enough space to work. As i am not particualrly exeprienced, could you tell me please how the nixos kernel will be named? What would you recommend as a boot manager? Do i need to set `boot.loader.gummiboot.enable = true`?
