Eelco Dolstra 8cae5e5782 Remove jfsrec from the minimal CD because it pulls in Boost 2012-07-25 11:39:41 -04:00
Eelco Dolstra a9a507eede * On headless systems, disable the emergency shell and redirect
mountall output to the standard Upstart job log file
  (/var/log/upstart/mountall).

Eelco Dolstra 6c1bb54483 * In the installation CD, make the NixOS/Nixpkgs available as if they
were obtained from the NixOS channel.  "nixos-install" copies this
  to the installed system as well.
* In the installation CD, set GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE to a low value for
  the benefit of memory-constrained environments.

Eelco Dolstra fb0a54b803 * In nixos-install, do a nix-pull from

  getting the right binaries.

Eelco Dolstra 096b7723c8 * Add a command "nixos-version" that prints the version of the
currently activated NixOS.  This is "0.1pre-svn" when built from a
  SVN tree, but contains the actual revision when installed from the
  NixOS channel or from the ISO.

Eelco Dolstra 4f4c529979 Stage 1 improvements:
* Load scsi_wait_scan after all other kernel modules to ensure that
  all SCSI device nodes have been created.
* Increase the timeout for the appearance of the root device to 20
  seconds.
* Do a "udevadm settle" just after the root device has appeared to
  make sure that udev isn't accessing the device anymore (hopefully).
  On EC2 (Xen), I've seen fsck on the root fail randomly with "device
  in use" errors.

Mathijs Kwik f31fefdfd9 splitted ssh/sshd X11 forwarding logic. Backward compatible change.
You can now set the forwardX11 config option for the ssh client and server separately.

For server, the option means "allow clients to request X11 forwarding".
For client, the option means "request X11 forwarding by default on all connections".

I don't think it made sense to couple them. I might not even run the server on some machines.
Also, I ssh to a lot of machines, and rarely want X11 forwarding. The times I want it,
I use the -X/-Y option, or set it in my ~/.ssh/config.

I also decoupled the 'XAuthLocation' logic from forwardX11.
For my case where ssh client doesn't want forwarding by default, it still wants to set the path for the cases I do need it.

As this flag is the one that pulls in X11 dependencies, I changed the minimal profile and the no-x-libs config to check that instead now.

Eelco Dolstra 9d89ca0c03 * Modularise vfat support. Also add fsck.vfat to the initrd. This
prevents errors when booting from VFAT (e.g. an ISO image converted
  using unetbootin).

2012-03-09 16:17:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 03ebb883d1 * Modularize filesystem support. Filesystems such as btrfs and
reiserfs now have separate modules that are conditional on
  boot.supportedFilesystems and boot.initrd.supportedFilesystems.
  By default, these include the filesystems specified in the fsType
  attribute in fileSystems.  Ext2/3/4 support is currently
  unconditional.

  Also unbreak the installer test (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2272302).

Eelco Dolstra 295dafed8a * Refactoring: graphical.nix no longer includes base.nix so that it

  properly handle shutdowns etc.

Eelco Dolstra ba7f635f8b * Move the hardware bits of base.nix into a separate module,
all-hardware.nix.  This allows base.nix (which should probably be
  renamed to something more descriptive) to be reused without getting
  the hardware configuration of the installation CD.

Eelco Dolstra c5955e5474 * In EC2 instances, a kernel panic should cause a reboot, and a

  should probably kill the instance since we can't repair it
  anyway...)

Peter Simons 0c68a3440a modules/profiles/base.nix: add 'pkgs.sshfsFuse'
The sshfsFuse package -- which is part of the system profile already -- doesn't
work without fuse. It tries to run /var/setuid-wrappers/fusermount, which then
can't find fusermount. Adding fuse to the system profile remedies this problem.

Eelco Dolstra 1fd2e71c8d * Don't add nixos-gui to the installation CD (for now) because 1)
xulrunner is a big package (> 105 MiB); 2) it breaks the CD build
  (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/1057258); 3) currently it doesn't do
  much yet.

  Note that if we do add it, we might as well add Firefox to the CD
  (since it's only a few MiB more on top of xulrunner).
