Eelco Dolstra 9127795e4a * Make sure that Upstart notices when the Zabbix server crashes so
that it can be restarted.  Zabbix is kind of hard to monitor, so use
  a trick with an open fifo to detect when it goes down.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 1dd3162d7c First attempt at trying to get a tarball of a bootable nixos system.
What I want with this derivation is to allow the sheevaplug nixos to
build a tarball with all the needed files to boot. Then, this can be
unpacked into an SD card, or into a NFS/TFTP server, and then the
user can boot the system with help of the uboot console.
By now, I have only tried to build the tarball in a PC, in order
to develop the nix expressions quicker.

There is nothing written specialy for the Sheevaplug in all this,
by now.

Eelco Dolstra cc90f62ceb * Use `psql' with an empty command to check whether PostgreSQL is up
and running.  `pg_ctl status' merely checks whether PostgreSQL is
  running, not whether it is already accepting connections.  This
  causes Upstart jobs that depend on PostgreSQL to fail.

Eelco Dolstra fc583b7054 * When QEMU encounters a "disk full" condition on the host filesystem,
its default behaviour is to stop the emulator (i.e. suspend the VM).
  For automated tests, this is bad, because is makes the VM appear to
  hang without any error message.  The "werror=report" flag causes
  QEMU to report the problem to the VM.  As a side effect QEMU exits
  very elegantly:

    [    2.308668] end_request: I/O error, dev vda, sector 534400
    [    2.309611] Buffer I/O error on device vda, logical block 66800
    ...
    *** glibc detected *** /nix/store/yhngqrww53j0aw7z7v4bv948x5g5fc3d-qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2/bin/qemu-system-x86_64: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x08e3e040 ***
    Aborted

  So I guess we now depend on a bug in QEMU :-)

Eelco Dolstra 0432766399 * Fall back to the kernel modules used at boot time if the modules in

  a configuration that has a different kernel version.

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).
