Eelco Dolstra	1aa35c8267	* Instead of adding all of util-linux to the initd, add just mount ... (and nuke its references so that we don't get glibc etc.). The initrd is now 3.2 MB (and that includes the entire staticTools from the stdenv bootstrap, most of which we don't actually need). svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=6942	2006-11-03 13:35:02 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	a94dd5c8b1	* Given a kernel build (with modules in $kernel/lib/modules/VERSION), ... `modules-closure.nix' produces a module tree in $out/lib/modules/VERSION that contains only the modules identified by `rootModules', plus their dependencies. It also generates an appropriate modules.dep. This is useful for initrds, as we obviously don't want a copy of the entire kernel module tree in the initial RAM disk. svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=6939	2006-11-03 11:47:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	23381ed03f	* Add the module tools, util-linux and the kernel modules to the ... initrd. Of course, the next step is to only add the kernel modules that we're going to need. svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=6934	2006-11-03 00:36:08 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	707dd20538	* Make device nodes in the stage 1 init (copied from ../init.sh). ... svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=6932	2006-11-02 23:58:06 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra	2d31e1b6d6	* A minimal boot script for stage 1 of the boot (loading kernel ... modules). The closure of the boot script is all we need in the initrd. svn path=/nixu/trunk/; revision=6929	2006-11-02 22:48:01 +00:00
