Eelco Dolstra 2821289aeb * Ugly hack: force udev to exit to prevent random "Device or resource
busy while trying to open /dev/xvda" errors from fsck.

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.

Eelco Dolstra 6f03065dce * Move the setting of $MODULE_DIR to modprobe.nix.
* Add a slash to the end of $MODULE_DIR, as expected by depmod.  (Not
  that running depmod from the command line is all that useful, since
  you can't use it to update the tree in the Nix store.  But at least
  commands like "depmod -n" work now.)  Reported by Kirill Elagin on
  IRC.

Eelco Dolstra 2cc8d0363e * Move the implementation of boot.kernelModules to udev's postStart.
It needs udevd to be running because the modules may require
  firmware.  Thanks to Mathijs and Arie for pointing this out.

Eelco Dolstra 573877c1ac * Use boot.kernelModules everywhere instead of explicit calls to
modprobe.
* Move the implementation of boot.kernelModules from the udev job to
  the activation script.  This prevents races with the udev job.
* Drop references to the "capability" kernel module, which no longer
  exists.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell dd6eb81797 Adding /etc/mdadm.conf, with the contents supplied at boot.initrd.mdadmConf.
This allows setting a fixed device name per array, thus ensuring that at boot,
the arrays will always be mounted with the same names. I think this allows
solving the problem of grub getting confused about softraid device names
(prefix and root), if the devices always get the same naming at initrd.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell bbebba68f7 A more friendly stage1, with interactive bash, busybox plenty of tools, etc.
I set it as default because users can benefit of this without having to prepare
their nixos first, and I don't think it will break any nixos for the initrd
size increase.

It can be disabled with 'boot.initrd.withExtraTools = false'.

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).

Florian Friesdorf eb755d4692 switched all mergeOptionString to pkgs.lib.types.string
pierron recommended the use of types.string over mergeOptionString, as
it is superior but might break things.

For my system the change evaluated to the exactly same.

Florian Friesdorf dd8e725d7d copy only cryptsetup deps to stage-1 and test cryptsetup
popt-0.16 and cryptsetup-1.4.1 both generated pkgconfig (in contrast
to older versions). The pkgconfig files (popt.pc and cryptsetup.pc)
contain references into the store that are not removed by patchelf and
stage-1 fails with errors like: "output is not allowed to refer to
path `/nix/store/qccjhn063cfv171rcaxvxh0yk96zf7l2-cryptsetup-1.4.1'".

Now, only the cryptsetup binaries and its dependencies are copied,
determined by ldd. In addition the cryptsetup binary and lvm are
tested after patchelf has adjusted the library paths.

Thanks to Peter Simons and Eelco Dolstra for giving the rights hints.

Peter Simons 20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc.
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.
