2a4417d637 * make-etc / activate-configuration: allow /etc files to be installed
as regular files instead of symlinks to the store.
* Sudo configuration, enabled through security.sudo.enable (on by
  default).  The contents of the sudoers file is specified in
  security.sudo.configFile.  The default sudoers file allows members
  of the new "wheel" group to run any command.

7243eb1d1d * Create /bin on the CD to suppress the /bin/sh symlink creation
error.
* Put the top-level system config on the CD, otherwise root doesn't
  get a working login shell on the CD (and the system PATH is broken
  as well).

668c146e33 * Doh! Make sure that we put *only* splash_helper in the initrd and
not all of splashutils, otherwise we get Glibc in the initrd.

327cb83cf2 * Make it possible to turn off the generation of fonts.conf. This is
important for the installation CD, where we don't want a dependency
  on all those fonts.  Of course, it's quite nice that turning off the
  generation of a file automatically removes the dependencies on the
  files referenced by that file.

162181ffba * LVM support (in stage 2; having / on LVM is not yet supported). LVM
triggers a new-devices event so that the filesystems job mounts file

the flag "safemode" is specified on the kernel command line, also
  disable the hardware scan.
* Option boot.kernelModules to specify a set of modules to be loaded
  in stage 2 (in addition to the initrd modules in
  boot.initrd.kernelModules).

f037f6fbd4 * Emit ip-up / ip-down events when we get or lose a DHCP lease.
* ntpd: start on ip-up, not when the network interfaces are up,
