diskSize defaults to the previous hard-coded 8192:
no change for existing users.
Users can set diskSize when building images which require
larger disk space; thus avoiding the error:
ERROR: cptofs failed. diskSize might be too small for closure.

I waited a long time, to wait and see how things would pan out.
It turns out obvious problems can't be dealt with, in an appropriate
timing and manner.
Thanks to one individual, backed by a possee of previously banned
individuals, and additional perma-banned individuals did it.
Thanks to all of you, I am quitting NixOS.
The continuous concern trolling, the continuous bigotted discussions,
the continued hostile tone, the actions made despite the numerous times
you were told to do better. The constant FUD. The constant waste of
time. It's not a single event. It is a pattern.
I do not think that this situation can be salvaged anymore.
Systemic issue in the lack of governance enabled this. While some will
put the fault entirely on the shoulders of the organization, I will say
that they share the blame, but the bullying and pressure from the
individuals ***who fully understand what they are doing*** is what did
it.
Couple that with the structural inability for action by the moderation
team being abused by those bad actors, and you have a recipe for
alienating and burning-out the leftover important contributors.
Let it be written here that I have discussed with organization members
and moderation team members about the continued behaviour of casting FUD
on the community by this individual. This was done this individual's ban.
It happened in what was (and still) tacitly agreed toe be a NixOS
community place, the subreddit. Probably elsewhere too.
Nothing was done, no mention of re-considering the duration of the ban,
and as far as I know, not even some discussion about how continuing the
behaviour that was the reason for being banned is unwelcome.
His name is jonringer (Jonathan Ringer).
What made me snap?
Not long after the ban being lifted, this individual continued with
weird persecution plots and conspiracy theories casting doubts on the
legitimacy of the moderation team's actions.
- https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/175
And in the least self-aware way possible, continued this discourse of
persecution and conspiracies, again casting FUD and divisiveness when
asking for what, with a reasonable person, would have a formality.
See the original comment contents.
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/50105#issuecomment-2179462978
This continued into the same behaviour that brought up the initial
warnings and ban, on the unmoderated community-adjacent subreddit.
- https://old.reddit.com/r/NixOS/comments/1djuxpx/drama_will_jonringers_commit_bit_be_restored/https://archive.is/sCJJw
This continued onto the discourse into the same behaviour that
brought up the initial warnings and ban.
- https://discourse.nixos.org/t/should-jonringer-get-his-commit-bit-back/47267/46
The absolute insolence, consistently twisting the words I wrote to fit
in his imagined narrative, took me over the edge. Then the moderator
decision to *increase the time-out delay* to twelve hours, which at
one hour was already causing the bad behaviour of mass-dumping
information into single messages, meant there was no way for me to
correct the facts and act in this manner without relitigating
elsewhere gave me the time and energy to do it.
That's it.
The behaviour of this person. No political beliefs (I still don't know
what they are). No employer (while I know and hate it, it is what it is).
No plot form some shadow bagel trying to somehow do... Only jon knows
what it would do... No take-over plot... Only the unacceptable
behaviour, or character if you will, of that person.
Someone who from the start always had an equal opportunity to participate,
regardless of his attributes. This person should have been accountable for
his actions, but couldn't understand it.
This was not helped by their posse harrassing me personally, on top of
all that.
In other words, the organization and community is not tooled to protect
its valued members.
***So I am quitting with prejudice.***
Even though I helped build the NixOS project for over seven years,
helped the community be the best it could in the IRC times, helped
direct some of the community decisions.
I did not want to leave this community, because this is not only my
home, but I built it with collaborators who cared. It seems like
there is no one who cares left anymore. And I was pushed out against
my best efforts.
Mostly thankless to the end.
