- The Rust rewrite of the `switch-to-configuration` program is now used for system activation by default.

  If you experience any issues, please report them.

  The original Perl script can still be used for now by setting `system.switch.enableNg` to `false`.

  The original Perl script is deprecated and is planned for removal in the 25.05 release. It will remain accessible until then by setting `system.switch.enableNg` to `false`.



- Support for mounting filesystems from block devices protected with [dm-verity](https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/device-mapper/verity.html)

  was added through the `boot.initrd.systemd.dmVerity` option.

          The Perl implementation of switch-to-configuration will be deprecated

          and removed in the 25.05 release of NixOS. Please migrate to the

          newer implementation by removing `system.switch.enableNg = false`

          from your configuration. If you are unable to migrate due to any

          issues with the new implementation, please create an issue and tag

          the maintainers of `switch-to-configuration-ng`.
