initrd). This is useful if /nix (which is necessary for stage 2) is
on a different file system than /.

sources in /etc/nixos with a Subversion checkout of those trees.
This should be run after a successful installation if you want to
keep NixOS up to date from Subversion.

* Installer: defaults for all arguments. The NixOS sources are

assumed to be in /etc/nixos/nixos and the system configuration in
/etc/nixos/configuration.nix. This is overridable through a few
environment variables.
* Installer: check that the mount point does in fact have a file
system mounted on it (so that we don't install in an empty /mnt),
and don't unmount afterwards for symmetry.

files referenced by that file.
