unmounted or at least remounted read-only during shutdown. Upstart
0.6 apparently uses nscd to do some name lookups, resulting in it
holding some mmap mappings to deleted files in /var/run/nscd.
E.g. lsof shows:
init 1 root DEL REG 253,0 1850313 /var/run/nscd/dbyn3Piz
init 1 root DEL REG 253,0 1850312 /var/run/nscd/dbt2e8PH
See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=324900.
This is a workaround - it would be better if Upstart didn't do this.

* dbus: don't signal Upstart, since that seems to make it forget about
pending events or something. In any case starting dbus after acpid
was running wouldn't trigger hal to be started (but the other way
around did work).

initialisation will be incredibly slow (minutes instead of
seconds). An strace shows that it's continuously looking up
timezone information if TZ is empty.

statically configured interface (i.e. we're not running dhclient).
Otherwise the ntpd job won't be triggered.
* Use the "-n" flag of "initctl emit" to send the event
asynchronously.

no longer emits specific events for those. Instead it emits a
"runlevel" event. The "runlevel" task starts the "shutdown" task to
perform the desired action.
* Upstart 0.6 no longer has a "shutdown" event, so "stop on shutdown"
no longer works. Therefore the shutdown task explicitly stops all
running Upstart jobs, before sending a TERM/KILL signal to all
remaining processes.
* Do a "chvt 1" at the start of the shutdown task to switch to the
console.
* Use /dev/console instead of /dev/tty1, since if somebody is logged
in on tty1, bad things will happen.

is "ready". This prevents ugly race conditions, e.g. HAL failing to
start because dbus hasn't finished starting yet.
* Support post-start scripts. These are executed after the job's main
process has started but before the job's "started" event is
emitted. For instance, the udev job uses this to perform "udevadm
trigger / settle" to create all devices. Previously this had to be
done in the pre-start script, so the daemon had to started in the
pre-start script as well.

change a NixOS installation from x86_64-linux to i686-linux (or vice
versa if you have distributed builds enabled - I used this upgrade
from 32-bit to 64-bit NixOS).

driver (in services.xserver.videoDriver), the X server is now given
a set of drivers, and will use PCI ids to find the right one.
The only problem is that the choice of OpenGL driver (the
/var/run/opengl-driver symlink) depends on what driver is selected
at runtime (i.e. the NVIDIA implementation for "nvidia", and Mesa
for all other drivers). However this isn't a big problem right now
since "nvidia" isn't included in the default set of drivers anyway
for legal reasons.
* `services.xserver.resolutions' now defaults to [], meaning that the
X server should figure out the desired resolution(s) itself.
Likewise, `services.xserver.defaultDepth' defaults to 0 to let the X
server figure it out.
* Removed some options from xorg.conf that no longer appear needed
("Composite" and the DRI "Mode").

"config" without changing the behavior.

* Replace an obscure piece of code by its equivalent based on the
recursiveUpdate function. Undefined the obsolete name of
boot.grubDevice to avoid conflicts.

The continue keyword was previously used to mount the next device, but
the loop in has been removed. (see r17919)
