6de20a7fe4 virtualbox-demo: Add modesetting to drivers
This needs to be included for VirtualBox to detect that it needs to start the video driver. "modesetting" is also set in virtualbox-image.nix but this line seems to take precedence over that one (even though the virtualbox-image.nix has a higher override?) This should fix the problems that I and a few others have been having with the .ova files built for nixos.org.

Fixes #20007.

nixos autoUpgrade: fix use of startAt
`startAt = ""` as in `startAt = optionalString false ...` results
in an invalid timer unit (due to "" being promoted to a singleton
list and not filtered out).

a34ec1517f nixos-install: Bug fix for root password not being asked
Since some changes to the setuid wrappers, there is a symlink involved
and it doesn't resolve correctly inside the chroot. Do the check inside
the chroot to make it work again.

3f1ceae281 Partially revert "Revert "nixos: remove rsync from base install and add explicit path in nixos-install""
This partially reverts commit 0aa7520670.

Fine for rsync to be in system path but we still need the explicit path
in nixos-install in case it is invoked from non-NixOS systems and also
to fix OVA test failure

0aa7520670 Revert "nixos: remove rsync from base install and add explicit path in nixos-install"
This reverts commit 582313bafe.

Removing rsync is actually pointless because nixos-install depends on
it. So if it's part of the system closure, we may as well provide it
to users.

Probably with the next Nix release we can drop the use of rsync and
use "nix copy" instead.

1542bddcc8 nixos-install.sh: Create /var (#18266)
Got lost in a6670c1a0b

a6670c1a0b Fixes #18124: atomically replace /var/setuid-wrappers/ (#18186)
Before this commit updating /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder introduced
a small window where NixOS activation scripts could be terminated
and resulted into empty /var/setuid-wrappers/ folder.

That's very unfortunate because one might lose sudo binary.

Instead we use two atomic operations mv and ln (as described in
https://axialcorps.com/2013/07/03/atomically-replacing-files-and-directories/)
to achieve atomicity.

Since /var/setuid-wrappers is not a directory anymore, tmpfs mountpoints
were removed in installation scripts and in boot process.

Tested:

- upgrade /var/setuid-wrappers/ from folder to a symlink
- make sure /run/setuid-wrappers-dirs/ legacy symlink is really deleted

24f8cf08cc nixos/lib/make-disk-image: refactor to use nixos-install
- Replace hand-rolled version of nixos-install in make-disk-image by an
  actual call to nixos-install
- Required a few cleanups of nixos-install
- nixos-install invokes an activation script which the hand-rolled version
  in make-disk-image did not do. We remove /etc/machine-id as that's
  a host-specific, impure, output of the activation script

Testing:

nix-build '<nixpkgs/nixos/release.nix>' -A tests.installer.simple passes

Also tried generating an image with:

nix-build -E 'let
    pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
    lib = pkgs.lib;
    nixos = import <nixpkgs/nixos> {
      configuration = {
        fileSystems."/".device = "/dev/disk/by-label/nixos";
        boot.loader.grub.devices = [ "/dev/sda" ];
        boot.loader.grub.extraEntries = '"''"'
          menuentry "Ubuntu" {
             insmod ext2
             search --set=root --label ubuntu
             configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
          }
        '"''"';
      };
    };
  in import <nixpkgs/nixos/lib/make-disk-image.nix> {
    inherit pkgs lib;
    config = nixos.config;
    diskSize = 2000;
    partitioned = false;
    installBootLoader = false;
  }'

Then installed the image:
$ sudo df if=./result/nixos.img of=/dev/sdaX bs=1M
$ sudo resize2fs /dev/disk/by-label/nixos
$ sudo mount /dev/disk/by-label/nixos /mnt
$ sudo mount --rbind /proc /mnt/proc
$ sudo mount --rbind /dev /mnt/dev
$ sudo chroot /mnt /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration boot

[ … optionally do something about passwords … ]

and successfully rebooted to that image.

Was doing all this from inside a Ubuntu VM with a single user nix install.

806e88c137 nixos-install: cleanups & improvements to run on non-NixOS systems
- Fix --no-bootloader which didn't do what it advertised
- Hardcode nixbld GID so that systems which do not have a nixbld user
  can still run nixos-install (only with --closure since they can't
  build anything)
- Cleanup: get rid of NIX_CONF_DIR(=/tmp)/nix.conf and pass arguments instead
- Cleanup: don't assume that the target system has '<nixpkgs/nixos>' or
  '<nixos-config>' to see if config.users.mutableUsers. Instead check if
  /var/setuid-wrappers/passwd is there

Installing NixOS now works from a Ubuntu host (using --closure).

Revert adding .git-revision unconditionally
This reverts commit 1e534e234b.

We already should have a .git directory if it is managed via Git,
otherwise there is no way to get the Git revision if neither
.git-revision or .git is present.

But having .git-revision _and_ .git present seems very much redundant to
me.

36f4a8a485 sd-image-armv7l-multiplatform.nix: Preliminary Raspberry Pi 2/3 support
- RPi3 successfully gets to U-Boot, but then fails to boot the kernel
  due to a missing device tree file. This should get added to the 4.8
  kernel release once this patch is merged: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/1/841
- RPi2 is not tested, but it should successfully boot the NixOS image.
