I have a virtual machine booted with the NixOS installer disk that I can ssh onto with a password:

ssh nixos@192.168.122.10

When I tried to use nixos-anywhere on this machine, I got

$ nix run github:nix-community/nixos-anywhere -- --flake .#minimal nixos@192.168.122.10
/nix/store/ldyzfbz61mxi18xlkdgkp4yqvww312lw-nixos-anywhere-1.3.0/libexec/nixos-anywhere/nixos-anywhere.sh: line 269: sshKeyDir: unbound variable

Is there any way to fix this? My configuration is the same as the one in here https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-anywhere-examples/tree/main with some names changed
