Eelco Dolstra 03760c0c03 * `installation-cd-big.nix' builds a NixOS installation CD containing 
an X server and KDE 4.  Thanks to squashfs it's only 466 MiB large.
  `installation-cd-small.nix' builds the original, text-only
  installation CD.

Eelco Dolstra cd1e4aefc1 * Break the cyclic dependency between the system derivation and 
Grub's menu.lst.

Eelco Dolstra 1cea6b09ef * Compress the Nix store on the CD using squashfs. This reduces the 
size of the i686-linux ISO image from 463 MiB to 147 MiB.  Hopefully
  it also speeds up installation due to reduced seek time and larger
  block sizes, but I haven't tested that yet (on real hardware).

Eelco Dolstra 135240e05f * Sigh. The nix-env call has to come after nix-store --load-db. 
Should really allow an ordering between postBootCommands.

Eelco Dolstra 463cf8efdd * Provide a /etc/nixos/configuration.nix in the booted CD to make 
nixos-rebuild work.  This makes it a true live CD.

Eelco Dolstra 1f8602afd2 * Get rid of the old CD/DVD expressions. live-dvd.nix is basically 
rescue-dvd.nix (not tested though), i.e. it has all its extra
  packages and includes the build-time dependencies.

Eelco Dolstra 0a0260514d * Renamed boot.localCommands to boot.postBootCommands since it wasn't 
such a good name (local to what?).

Eelco Dolstra 5cf8604b1e * Module that contains the configuration for the NixOS installation CD 
(not yet complete).

Eelco Dolstra e4e408293e * Modularise the building of the installation CD/DVD. The module 
iso-image.nix contains the minimal stuff necessary to build a
  bootable ISO image containing the given configuration.  The idea is
  that this can be customised by providing additional modules, e.g. to
  add extra packages to the image.

  The ISO image is exported in the configuration attribute
  system.build.isoImage.  So it can be built as follows:

  $ nix-build lib/eval-config.nix \
      --arg configuration 'import ./modules/installer/cd-dvd/iso-image.nix' \
      -A config.system.build.isoImage
