Armijn Hemel	9c56696e75	support for initrd. Right now the image is WAY too big, so it boots with a kernel panic. initrd should be brought back to a few megabytes instead so it can be safely unzipped in memory. Ideas: - klibc instead of glibc - leave out a lot of packages in the initrd: - gcc - linux-headers - ... - have a minimal "stage 1", which mounts the CD (figure out how) and remounts part of the CD on /nix and /nixpkgs svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=3502	2005-08-01 17:30:45 +00:00

support for initrd. Right now the image is *WAY* too big, so it boots with

a kernel panic. initrd should be brought back to a few megabytes instead
so it can be safely unzipped in memory.

Ideas:
- klibc instead of glibc
- leave out a lot of packages in the initrd:
  - gcc
  - linux-headers
  - ...
- have a minimal "stage 1", which mounts the CD (figure out how) and
remounts part of the CD on /nix and /nixpkgs
