Eelco Dolstra 2936e44956 Manual: xserver -> display-manager 2013-03-24 22:07:27 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra ae4e94d9ac Rename ‘boot.systemd’ to ‘systemd’ 
Suggested by Mathijs Kwik.  ‘boot.systemd’ is a misnomer because
systemd affects more than just booting.  And it saves some typing.
 2013-01-16 12:33:18 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra c7b427fbca Give our kernel parameters a common prefix ("boot.*") 2013-01-09 22:53:44 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 93a7a32bab initrd: Don't enable the root shell by default 
Starting an authenticated root shell is a security hole, so don't do
it by default.  The kernel command line parameter
‘initrd.shell_on_fail’ restores the original.  (Of course, this only
improves security if you have a password on GRUB to prevent the kernel
command line from being edited by unauthorized users.)

Eelco Dolstra b1da38f564 Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into systemd 2012-11-30 16:12:04 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 7435db4f89 Get rid of the last uses of mkAlways 
mkAlways is an insane function, mkMerge is much saner.

Eelco Dolstra 08e6c0cb7c Update channel URLs 2012-11-12 09:19:25 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra 458f36f5f1 Turn fileSystems into an attribute set 
So now you can write

  fileSystems =
    [ { mountPoint = "/";
        device = "/dev/sda1";
      }
    ];

as

  fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/sda1";

Eelco Dolstra db7a11b132 Manual: prevent a runtime dependency on DocBook XSL 2012-07-25 11:54:24 -04:00
Marc Weber 47e67f5e9c renaming all occurrences of /var/run/{booted,current}-system 
in particular those found in docs
still keeping old path in modules/config/shells.nix for unkown reason (?)
 2012-07-23 14:01:35 -04:00
Eelco Dolstra cc357c7e64 nixos-rebuild: Add a convenience option ‘--upgrade’ 
This is equivalent to running ‘nix-channel --update nixos’ before
running ‘nixos-rebuild’.
 2012-06-25 16:17:34 -04:00

Eelco Dolstra 825a84c8f6 * Fix generated module links in the manual to point to GitHub. 
* Use <nixos/...> instead of /etc/nixos/...

 2012-06-08 20:59:26 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 29b05fb62a * nixos-checkout: add an argument to specify the directory where the 
sources should be stored.  E.g. "nixos-checkout /home/eelco/srcs"
  will check out to /home/eelco/srcs/{nixos,nixpkgs}.  Probably the
  /etc/nixos default should be removed eventually because /etc is a
  pretty weird place to keep large source trees.

Eelco Dolstra 846cb81234 * Comment out the "Configuration in home directory" chapter. 
Everything described in that chapter is a bug (e.g. needing to
  manually create symlinks) that properly belongs in the issue tracker
  or wiki, not in the manual.

Eelco Dolstra be189991e0 * Revert r33928: veth* can also be a bridged interface requiring dhcp. 
See e.g. https://nixos.org/repos/nix/configurations/trunk/tud/stan.nix

  So we need a better solution for this...
