Sander van der Burg 11d2cd78e0 - deployment.targetHost is now used for connecting to remote hosts instead of deployment.hostname. This makes more sense.

 2010-09-25 22:29:54 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra c1295661c4 * Added a command `nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader'. This is 
like `build-vm', but boots using the regular boot loader (i.e. GRUB
  1 or 2) rather than booting directly from the kernel/initrd.  Thus
  it allows testing of GRUB.

svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=17660
 2009-10-05 23:47:50 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 6b3b22537e * Generate valid DocBook. <emphasis> isn't allowed in a <filename>. 
* For manpage generation, work around a bug in the DocBook XSL
  stylesheet by using a <simplelist> instead of a <itemizedlist>
  (which is arguably better anyway).  The indentation of an
  <itemizedlist> lasts beyond the end of that element under certain
  circumstances, it seems.

* Disable the man.endnotes.are.numbered option to prevent endnotes to
  be generated for each xlink:href in the Declarations/Definitions
  lists (which we don't want anyway, I guess).  This causes libxslt to
  get stuck in an infinite (?) loop.

* Change the module syntax of the example to follow Eelco's suggestions.

* Add a section "Building your own NixOS CD", which explain how to replace
configuration.nix by the configuration file of a live CD/DVD.

* Fix "Testing the installer" and "Testing the initrd" to fit the location
of derivations.

Nicolas Pierron 892d12bccf - Move some system configuration to options: 
* system.nssModules
  * system.modulesTree
  * system.sbin.modprobe
  * system.sbin.mount
  * nix.envVars

- Remove Arguments that can be accessed either by "config" or "pkgs".

- Use the new scheme for upstart-jobs/default.nix.
This is now a configuration file which is imported by system/options.nix.

- Jobs can now include upstart-job/default.nix:
  * upstrat-jobs/cron.nix
  * upstart-jobs/dhclient.nix

=> No Nixos file refers to upstart-jobs/default.nix except if one of its options is require to define an extra job. (e.g.: cron, dhclient)
