Lluís Batlle i Rossell 093b51a562 Removing references to linux kernel 'vmlinuz', and making them point to 'bzImage'.
That should match with a related change in nixpkgs.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 420639a4b1 Making generations-dir consider the pkgs.platform.
stdenv-updates stuff. Still to be reviewed, but at least an implementation to have
some different armv5tel-linux platforms: qemu versatile and the sheevaplug.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 75f6cd20da Making modular my previous changes for armv5tel. I updated the way to use
grub. Its options are no more inside 'boot', but inside 'boot.loader.grub'.
I added a new bootloader configuration for nixos, generationsDir. It creates
/boot/default/{init,initrd,kernel,system} symlinks, and the same for the generations
in /boot/system-$gen/{init,initrd,kernel,system}.

I can program the u-boot loader to load /boot/default files always, and have
a minimal nixos boot loader installer functionality. Additionally, I can refer
to the other system generations easily, with a simple 'ls' in /boot.
