Lluís Batlle i Rossell 4bc0bfec4c Making the system-tarball-pc boot fine with PXE, and include help files and a
readme file as examples for an easy PXE setup.

This allows booting the NixOS in the system tarball, and thus allows installing nixos.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell 8c27201ce0 Fixing mkOverride and openssh things on system-tarballs
svn path=/nixos/branches/stdenv-updates/; revision=24554
2010-10-31 19:34:39 +00:00
Sander van der Burg 9c722e474d - Added nixos-build-vms command, which builds a virtual network from a network.nix expression (also used by nixos-deploy-network)
- Added a backdoor option to the interactive run-vms script. This allows me to intergrate the virtual network approach with Disnix
- Small documentation fixes

Some explanation:

The nixos-build-vms command line tool can be used to build a virtual network of a network.nix specification.
For example, a network configuration (network.nix) could look like this:

{
  test1 = 
    {pkgs, config, ...}:
 
    {
      services.openssh.enable = true;
      ...
    };

  test2 =
    {pkgs, config, ...}:
    
    {
      services.openssh.enable = true;
      services.xserver.enable = true;
    }

    ;
}

By typing the following instruction:

$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix

a virtual network is built, which can be started by typing:

$ ./result/bin/run-vms

It is also possible to enable a backdoor. In this case *.socket files are stored in the current directory
which can be used by the end-user to invoke remote instruction on a VM in the network through a Unix
domain socket.

For example by building the network with the following instructions:

$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix --use-backdoor

and launching the virtual network:

$ ./result/bin/run-vms

You can find two socket files in your current directory, namely: test1.socket and test2.socket.
These Unix domain sockets can be used to remotely administer the test1 and test2 machine
in the virtual network.

For example by running:

$ socat ./test1.socket stdio
ls /root

You can retrieve the contents of the /root directory of the virtual machine with identifier test1

2010-10-10 11:46:57 +00:00
Sander van der Burg 122e125d6b Added the nixos-deploy-network tool. With this tool you can write a network of NixOS configurations, e.g.:
{
  test1 = {pkgs, config, ...}:
    {
       # NixOS config of machine test1
       ...
    };

  test2 = {pkgs, config, ...}:
    {
       # NixOS config of machine test2
       ...
    };
}

And an infrastructure expression, e.g:

{
  test1 = {
    hostName = "test1.example.org";
    system = "i686-linux";
  };
  test2 = {
    hostName = "test2.example.org";
    system = "x86_64-linux";
  };
}

And by executing:

nixos-deploy-network -n network.nix -i infrastructure.nix

The system configurations in the network expression are built, transferred to the machines in the network and finally activated.

Eelco Dolstra c1295661c4 * Added a command `nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader'. This is
like `build-vm', but boots using the regular boot loader (i.e. GRUB
  1 or 2) rather than booting directly from the kernel/initrd.  Thus
  it allows testing of GRUB.

Eelco Dolstra d659488209 * Use the regular GRUB menu builder for Amazon. There are two issues:
we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
  (because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
  requires "root (hd0)".  For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
  to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
  generated without installing GRUB.  For the second, add an option
  boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
  to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").

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 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).

Eelco Dolstra deb4f88c2c * Let the GRUB menu builder detect whether /boot is on a different
partition from /.  If so, copy the kernels and initrds to /boot and
  use paths relative to /boot in the GRUB configuration file.  This
  makes the boot.loader.grub.bootDevice option obsolete.  (Is there a
  way to mark obsolete options?)  It also makes it unnecessary to set
  boot.loader.grub.copyKernels, although that option is still
  available since it can speed up GRUB if the Nix store is very
  large.
