20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc.
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.

4bc0bfec4c Making the system-tarball-pc boot fine with PXE, and include help files and a
readme file as examples for an easy PXE setup.

This allows booting the NixOS in the system tarball, and thus allows installing nixos.

  builder still needs to add `systemConfig' to the kernel command line
  for compatibility with old configurations.

1dd3162d7c First attempt at trying to get a tarball of a bootable nixos system.
What I want with this derivation is to allow the sheevaplug nixos to
build a tarball with all the needed files to boot. Then, this can be
unpacked into an SD card, or into a NFS/TFTP server, and then the
user can boot the system with help of the uboot console.
By now, I have only tried to build the tarball in a PC, in order
to develop the nix expressions quicker.

There is nothing written specialy for the Sheevaplug in all this,
by now.

2892aed712 * lib/eval-config.nix: combined "configuration" and "extraModules"
into one argument "modules".
* release.nix: fixed the manual job.
* ISO generation: break an infinite recursion.  Don't know why this
  suddenly happens.  Probably because of the nixpkgs.config change,
  but I don't see why.  Maybe the option evaluation is too strict.
