qemu-vm: Add option to create empty disk images.
This allows to add additional raw disk images to the VM, which therein are
available as /dev/vdb, /dev/vdc, /dev/vde and so on. Especially when testing
partitioning, this could be useful.

Eelco Dolstra 7a382679e4 Revert 434260c772
There is a bug in unionfs, but it only manifested itself because of
our accidental use of stage-1 libraries in stage-2.

Eelco Dolstra ef5108f560 Fix registering valid paths in VM tests
Commit 37b56574e2 revealed that the code
to get regInfo from /proc/cmdline was broken.  It only happened to
work because the kernel passes the command line to stage 1 through the
environment, so $regInfo was set anyway.

Eelco Dolstra 434260c772 Work around a bug in unionfs
Unionfs cannot delete directories that contain open deleted files.
This broke a Nix test.

Eelco Dolstra fc14a31f2c unionfs: Increase the open file limit
The default (1024) is way too low, e.g. to start KDE on the
installation CD.

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.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 3e734ba695 Qemu says 'boot=on' is deprecated, so I try a half-fix here
I change the 'build-vm' to use '-boot menu=on', so a menu displays and allows
choosing the 2nd hd. Otherwise, I don't know how to boot from a 2nd hd.

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 97f087cd44 Turn networking.interfaces into an attribute set
Thus

  networking.interfaces = [ { name = "eth0"; ipAddress = "192.168.15.1"; } ];

can now be written as

  networking.interfaces.eth0.ipAddress = "192.168.15.1";

The old notation still works though.

Flushing is bad if the Nix store is on a remote filesystem accessed
over that interface.

http://hydra.nixos.org/build/3184162

Also added a interface option ‘prefixLength’ as a better alternative
to ‘subnetMask’.

Eelco Dolstra 9692495df0 Use BusyBox in the initrd
Using BusyBox instead of Bash plus a bunch of other tools gives us a
much more feature-full, yet smaller initrd.  In particular, BusyBox
contains networking commands such as ip and a DHCP client, useful for
NFS boots.  It's also much more convenient for rescue situations
because the shell has builtin readline support and there are many more
tools (including vi).
