Eelco Dolstra bb1ee3f190 * boot.kernel renamed to boot.kernelPackages (see the help for a 
description) to allow all kernel-related packages to be overriden
  easily.  For instance, you can now say in configuration.nix

    boot = {
      kernelPackages = pkgs: pkgs.kernelPackages_2_6_25;
    };

  to use Linux 2.6.25.x.  Externel kernel module packages (like
  the NVIDIA drivers) appropriate for this kernel will then be used
  automatically.

Michael Raskin 1a6e1a43dc Added closed-install example of configurable Live DVD. Tested: virtual network of two QEmu-s, one is booted from that LiveDVD, another executes one scripted process and forces first to install NixOS.

Eelco Dolstra ce250ffb37 * Installation CD: include a lot of modules (SATA, PATA, Firewire, 
USB, some SCSI controllers) in the initrd for mounting the CD.
* Add nix-hardware-scan to the system.
* Upstart: don't use the -v flag.
* Include the NixOS version in the ISO image filename.
* Include testdisk and ms-sys in the CD.
* Some bugfixes in the installer.

Eelco Dolstra 9fd5d70968 * The CD is now a true live CD: you can run Nix operations in it 
thanks to unionfs.  For instance, nix-env and nixos-rebuild work.
  The tricky part was to build a Nix database (in the tmpfs/unionfs)
  which is now necessary to prevent store paths on the CD from being
  deleted right away because they otherwise wouldn't be valid.
  
* nixos-install: use the /etc/nixos/configuration.nix from the target
  file system (don't copy it anymore).  Since the user is supposed to
  mount the target file system on /mnt anyway, we may as well require
  that configuration.nix is placed in /mnt/etc/nixos.  This also makes
  upgrading / reinstalling much easier, since it will automatically
  use the right configuration.nix.

Eelco Dolstra 49e8829053 * Use unionfs to provide a real Live CD, i.e., the files on the CD 
appear writable (though all writes go to a tmpfs).  This allows you
  to run Nix operations on the Live CD.  However, we're not quite
  there yet since the CD doesn't have a valid Nix database.  So for
  instance a garbage collect will cause everything to be deleted,
  hanging the system.
