Systemd upstream provides targets for networking. This also includes a target network-online.target.
In this PR I remove / replace most occurrences since some of them were even wrong and could delay startup.
Setting nixosVersion to something custom is useful for meaningful GRUB
menus and /nix/store paths, but actuallly changing it rebulids the
whole system path (because of `nixos-version` script and manual
pages). Also, changing it is not a particularly good idea because you
can then be differentitated from other NixOS users by a lot of
programs that read /etc/os-release.
This patch introduces an alternative option that does all you want
from nixosVersion, but rebuilds only the very top system level and
/etc while using your label in the names of system /nix/store paths,
GRUB and other boot loaders' menus, getty greetings and so on.
The issue was that grub was not building the default entry which would
leave systems unbootable. This can now be safely reverted as the default
entry is being built once again.
This reverts commit fd1fb0403c.
Removed the 'wait for GCE metadata service' job, as it was causing
issues with the metadata service (likely some firewall or something).
In stead, use wget with retries (including connection refused) in
stead or curl for fetching the SSH keys. Also made the stdout/-err
of this job appear in the console.
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
