IIRC in the live environment, the password for the "nixos" user is also "nixos"
Also, the lockscreen should be disabled by default, it should not lock due to inactivity.
That was the first thing I tried.
TTY1(?) and what I see elsewhere say that the password is empty.
Yeah, it's empty by default: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/5defcb4b0d6c286e8b4b2869cf38efb4cdeb5bf4/nixos/modules/profiles/installation-device.nix#L31-L40
Can you login via the tty?
IIRC, when I went into a TTY while on the lock screen, I was already working as the
nixos
user. Is that what you're asking?
