Tim Dysinger 6961f5048d add vboxsf group (for automatic mounting of shared folders) 2012-12-31 11:00:02 -10:00
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 7613ae950a Fix booting on EC2
The kill command in ash doesn't know the "--" syntax, but doesn't need
it either.

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).

Eelco Dolstra 185e9b69ed * Assume that the ephemeral devices are called /dev/xvda-e. So
in Charon deployments, non-ephemeral devices should be >= /dev/xvdf.

Eelco Dolstra 86d8d62d16 * Allow Upstart jobs to declare that they shouldn't be restarted by
switch-to-configuration.  E.g. the X server shouldn't be restarted
  because that kills all the X clients.

Eelco Dolstra 53bd25c7fa * Automatically start VBoxClient-all when the X session starts. This

Eelco Dolstra 5e5328cb2e * Get the SSH host key from the user data if available. This allows
the user to create an instance with a known host key, and thus
  permit a secure connection.

Eelco Dolstra 4abfacb468 * In the initrd, automatically mount all available ephemeral disks.
This depends on the EC2 instance type, so we have to probe for them.

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.
