devices. These are used to replace hand made listings in the basic
installation CD.
The configuration file, which is generated by nixos-hardware-scan, enables
not-detected devices by default.

init script. This removes the need for the `systemConfig' boot
parameter; `init=<stage-2-init>' is enough. However, the GRUB menu
builder still needs to add `systemConfig' to the kernel command line
for compatibility with old configurations.

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.

root=... kernel command line parameter, instead of hard-coding it in
`fileSystems'. This is to allow CD-to-USB converters such as
UNetbootin to rewrite the kernel command line to the label or UUID
of the USB stick.

we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
(because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
requires "root (hd0)". For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
generated without installing GRUB. For the second, add an option
boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").

grub.cfg before the menu entries. (This could also be done using
`extraEntriesBeforeNixOS', but then you can't have entries *after*
the main entry anymore.)
* In the installer test, redirect GRUB output to the serial port.

What I want with this derivation is to allow the sheevaplug nixos to
build a tarball with all the needed files to boot. Then, this can be
unpacked into an SD card, or into a NFS/TFTP server, and then the
user can boot the system with help of the uboot console.
By now, I have only tried to build the tarball in a PC, in order
to develop the nix expressions quicker.
There is nothing written specialy for the Sheevaplug in all this,
by now.

Seeing a strange kernelPackages mentioned in installation-cd-rescue (2.6.31_something) I
update that to 2.6.32.

is done by instantiating a webserver that simulates nixos.org.
Using nix-push we create a channel that contains some stuff (namely
the GNU Hello source tarball and the rlwrap program). This was a
bit tricky because nix-push requires a writable Nix store. Using
AUFS this is possible, but not on recent Linux kernels (AUFS1 over
CIFS fails).
