Eelco Dolstra f44d27a96c Make the installer work on systemd 
Systemd mounts the root filesystem as a shared subtree, which breaks
recursive bind mounts.

Eelco Dolstra 6c1bb54483 * In the installation CD, make the NixOS/Nixpkgs available as if they 
were obtained from the NixOS channel.  "nixos-install" copies this
  to the installed system as well.
* In the installation CD, set GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE to a low value for
  the benefit of memory-constrained environments.

Eelco Dolstra f9ac67c67f * Copying manifests is slightly tricky because 
download-using-manifests expects that the files in
  /nix/var/nix/manifests are symlinks into the store.

Eelco Dolstra f37b453b19 * nixos-install: Ensure that builds are done by the nixbld users 
rather than root.  Also copy all manifests into the chroot so that
  any nix-pull done outside the chroot is "inherited".

Peter Simons 20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc. 
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.

Eelco Dolstra dbc03fbf68 * nixos-install: copy /etc/nsswitch.conf to the chroot. This seems 
necessary to have it use /etc/hosts.

Eelco Dolstra 1a0bb65901 * Added a regression test for whether the Nixpkgs channel works. This 
is done by instantiating a webserver that simulates nixos.org.
  Using nix-push we create a channel that contains some stuff (namely
  the GNU Hello source tarball and the rlwrap program).  This was a
  bit tricky because nix-push requires a writable Nix store.  Using
  AUFS this is possible, but not on recent Linux kernels (AUFS1 over
  CIFS fails).

Marc Weber 401fd84ae1 kvm installation test update + NixOS installation archive 
You can run the kvm nixos installation test by:
  nix-build --no-out-link tests/test-nixos-install-from-cd.nix
It boots the installed system.
It still fails sshd isn't started (yet)

adding nixos-bootstrapping-archive:
You can install NixOS easily using any live cd now.

Eelco Dolstra c3ea825c23 * Fix installing from the modular branch. system/system.nix no longer 
exists.  $NIXPKGS needs to be set, otherwise NixOS can't find
  Nixpkgs (because in the chroot it's in /mnt/etc/nixos/nixpkgs).
  Also clear LANG to shut up Perl warnings about the locale.
