Eelco Dolstra 3a70748bb5 * Show a splash screen during booting. The splash screen is displayed
by the program /sbin/splash_helper in the initrd and is called even
  before /init.
* make-initrd.nix: allow a list of FSOs to be placed in the initrd,
  with a symlink to each top-level FSO (e.g., /init,
  /sbin/splash_helper, /etc/splash).
* make-initrd.nix: pre-create /proc, /dev and /sys, because
  splash_helper needs them.

Eelco Dolstra 0b1caba9d8 * Use fbsplash / splashutils to give virtual consoles a nice
background.  Each console can have a different theme.  The mapping
  from consoles to themes is specified in splash-themes.nix.

Eelco Dolstra 3055ff0ae6 * Don't use /sys/class/net/*/operstate to find out the active interface,
since there seems to be a delay after the interface is brought up before
  operstate reflects that.

Eelco Dolstra 2cccff268d * Pass the path of the stage 2 init script to stage 1 init through the
kernel command line, instead of having a /init symlink.  This allows
  us to switch between configurations.
* Some debug support: adding `debug' to the kernel command line gives
  a stage 1 shell.
