Eelco Dolstra fbde5e027e Sync after installing the boot loader
Previously we synced just before calling switch-to-configuration.
That prevents corruption of the Nix store, but it can leave the boot
loader configuration and kernel files in /boot corrupted.  So do the
sync after installing the boot loader.

Eelco Dolstra f44d27a96c Make the installer work on systemd
Systemd mounts the root filesystem as a shared subtree, which breaks
recursive bind mounts.

This is equivalent to running ‘nix-channel --update nixos’ before
running ‘nixos-rebuild’.

Eelco Dolstra f2a33809c1 * Check for .git instead of .svn.

Eelco Dolstra a0cc181117 * nixos-checkout: get the NixOS/Nixpkgs sources from GitHub.
svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=34347
2012-06-04 15:39:07 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra f81eb12d41 * Now hopefully a proper fix for the problem in
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2645533 (which I can't reproduce btw -
  so much for reproducibility...).

Eelco Dolstra 801cd7402c * Don't use ‘chown user.group’ since that syntax is not officially
supported (you're supposed to say ‘chown user:group’).

2012-05-17 19:43:32 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 560262dae0 * Fix "error: the group nixbld' specified in build-users-group' does
not exist" during nixos-install.

2012-05-15 13:50:36 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 29b05fb62a * nixos-checkout: add an argument to specify the directory where the
sources should be stored.  E.g. "nixos-checkout /home/eelco/srcs"
  will check out to /home/eelco/srcs/{nixos,nixpkgs}.  Probably the
  /etc/nixos default should be removed eventually because /etc is a
  pretty weird place to keep large source trees.

Eelco Dolstra 6c1bb54483 * In the installation CD, make the NixOS/Nixpkgs available as if they
were obtained from the NixOS channel.  "nixos-install" copies this
  to the installed system as well.
* In the installation CD, set GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE to a low value for
  the benefit of memory-constrained environments.

Eelco Dolstra f8e36664a6 * Subtle: since nix-env processes flags in order, any ‘-I’ flag should
come before ‘-f <nixos>’.

Eelco Dolstra 395d73db70 * nixos-rebuild: don't do a pull of the manifest by default anymore.
It's not necessary when using the NixOS channel.  "nixos-rebuild
  pull" now pulls from the NixOS channel.

Eelco Dolstra fb0a54b803 * In nixos-install, do a nix-pull from

Eelco Dolstra dccd99b564 * Disable "nixos-gen-seccure-keys": it's not clear what it's for, it's
not documented, and it doesn't seem to be used anywhere.

2012-04-10 21:11:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 096b7723c8 * Add a command "nixos-version" that prints the version of the
currently activated NixOS.  This is "0.1pre-svn" when built from a
  SVN tree, but contains the actual revision when installed from the
  NixOS channel or from the ISO.

Eelco Dolstra f9ac67c67f * Copying manifests is slightly tricky because
download-using-manifests expects that the files in
  /nix/var/nix/manifests are symlinks into the store.

Eelco Dolstra f37b453b19 * nixos-install: Ensure that builds are done by the nixbld users
rather than root.  Also copy all manifests into the chroot so that
  any nix-pull done outside the chroot is "inherited".
