124 This key determines sorting relative to non-NixOS entries.
125 See also https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/boot_loader_specification/#sorting
126
127 This option can also be used to control the sorting of NixOS specialisations.
128
129 By default, specialisations inherit the sort key of their parent generation
130 and will have the same value for both the sort-key and the version (i.e. the generation number),
131 systemd-boot will therefore sort them based on their file name, meaning that
132 in your boot menu you will have each main generation directly followed by
133 its specialisations sorted alphabetically by their names.
134
135 If you want a different ordering for a specialisation, you can override
136 its sort-key which will cause the specialisation to be uncoupled from its
137 parent generation. It will then be sorted by its new sort-key just like
138 any other boot entry.
139
140 The sort-key is stored in the generation's bootspec, which means that
141 generations keep their sort-keys even if the original definition of the
142 generation was removed from the NixOS configuration.
143 It also means that updating the sort-key will only affect new generations,
144 while old ones will keep the sort-key that they were originally built with.
