Ludovic Courtès ac29ad197b stage-1-init: Remove timeout from `fail()'.
Timeouts upon failure can be harmful, e.g., after a file system failure
that needs manual intervention.

Eelco Dolstra 0b39f614e9 * Don't wait for CIFS "devices" (//share/path) to appear since they
won't.  This speeds up booting from CIFS a lot.

Eelco Dolstra 0f6d7c8862 * Use insmod from module_init_tools in the initrd, since the latest
klibc no longer has it.

Eelco Dolstra da77a6437f * qemu-vm.nix: automatically create and initialise the disk image if
it doesn't already exist.  Also set up some ad hoc port forwarding
  from the host to the guest.

Eelco Dolstra 9460a30851 * Use the fileSystems option to mount the host filesystem. Also, it
seems that mount.cifs isn't actually needed (anymore?).

Eelco Dolstra e08e7aedbc * Option boot.initrd.postMountCommands to specify additional shell
commands for in stage 1 of the boot.

Eelco Dolstra 16937dd23d * Make fsck on journaling filesystems optional (enabled by default).
This is because fsck.ext3 takes several minutes to recover the
  journal, whereas the ext3 implementation in the kernel only takes a
  few seconds.  I'd love to know why this is the case...

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 e940f1fbd7 * Cleaned up the error messages in the stage 1 init script.
* Use the basename from coreutils rather than a bash hack.

Eelco Dolstra 0a0260514d * Renamed boot.localCommands to boot.postBootCommands since it wasn't
such a good name (local to what?).

Eelco Dolstra 3c6ae39a0d * Refactoring: moved some options out of system/options.nix (almost
empty now), do more of bashrc.sh declaratively, and moved nsswitch
  generation to modules/config/nsswitch.nix.
