Eelco Dolstra aa445933a7 * Include some more firmware in the installation CD. 
svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=19007
 2009-12-16 23:52:02 +00:00
Marc Weber 4b5864666e * refactoring kvm test and bootstrapping image. 
expose makeInfo (used by test now)
  expose config hack
* Adding tests to release.nix
* fixes
* removing dependency on perl

refactoring details:
Move all configuration modules used by the NixOS installation test script
into one directory.

Eelco Dolstra 6c9059e717 * Added an option `boot.initrd.availableKernelModules' that specifies 
modules that should be added to the initrd, but should only be
  loaded on demand (e.g. by the kernel or by udev).  This is
  especially useful in the installation CD, where we now only load the
  modules needed by the hardware.
* Enable automatic modprobing by udev in the initrd.

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.
See README-BOOTSTRAP-NIXOS

Eelco Dolstra c1b008b4e3 * Don't build the Grub menu builder script on the ISO. Then we don't 
the /init and /system symlinks on the CD (since it removes the

  derivation).

Eelco Dolstra 2892aed712 * lib/eval-config.nix: combined "configuration" and "extraModules" 
into one argument "modules".
* release.nix: fixed the manual job.
* ISO generation: break an infinite recursion.  Don't know why this
  suddenly happens.  Probably because of the nixpkgs.config change,
  but I don't see why.  Maybe the option evaluation is too strict.

  installation CD.

Eelco Dolstra 1cea6b09ef * Compress the Nix store on the CD using squashfs. This reduces the 
size of the i686-linux ISO image from 463 MiB to 147 MiB.  Hopefully
  it also speeds up installation due to reduced seek time and larger
  block sizes, but I haven't tested that yet (on real hardware).

Eelco Dolstra e4e408293e * Modularise the building of the installation CD/DVD. The module 
iso-image.nix contains the minimal stuff necessary to build a
  bootable ISO image containing the given configuration.  The idea is
  that this can be customised by providing additional modules, e.g. to
  add extra packages to the image.

  The ISO image is exported in the configuration attribute
  system.build.isoImage.  So it can be built as follows:

  $ nix-build lib/eval-config.nix \
      --arg configuration 'import ./modules/installer/cd-dvd/iso-image.nix' \
      -A config.system.build.isoImage
