Lluís Batlle i Rossell 4bc0bfec4c Making the system-tarball-pc boot fine with PXE, and include help files and a
readme file as examples for an easy PXE setup.

This allows booting the NixOS in the system tarball, and thus allows installing nixos.

Eelco Dolstra 63e9ece771 * Support booting into another GRUB boot entry via ‘grub-reboot’.
This requires grub.conf to honour the saved_entry GRUB environment
  variable.

Eelco Dolstra d72ba42187 * Revert to GRUB 1 as the default. The switch to GRUB 2 seems to
cause more problems than expected, so we should probably think about
  the proper migration path for a while.  In the meantime, of course,
  everybody is encouraged to set boot.loader.grub.version = 2.

Eelco Dolstra b8a1e98180 * nixos-checkout depends on subversion. (The original nixos-checkout
did a "nix-env -i subversion", which may be preferable to a static
  dependency.)

Eelco Dolstra 41a8f23189 * Revert to the old (r10556) version of the nixos-checkout script. It
was never intended as a generic "check out anything" script; it's
  just a convenience script to obtain the NixOS trunk after
  installation.  So that's what it should do.

Eelco Dolstra 6c55079ab0 * nixos-hardware-scan: It's not necessary to detect Intel graphics
cards because the default X config contains the Intel driver.
  Likewise, there is no need for the "vesa" default.

Eelco Dolstra 6ee609a0a3 * On the installation CD, set the overcommit heuristic to "always

Eelco Dolstra 8361444f9b * Disable compositing for now in the graphical installation CD. It

Eelco Dolstra ba459a0bf3 * Fix the broken installer (http://hydra.nixos.org/build/811980). The
hardware scan was generating a hardware.nix containing
  "pkgs.linuxPackages" without having "pkgs" in scope.  Also, it
  shouldn't define boot.kernelPackages.
