183ed7a5ea * Create a symlink to /nix/var/nix/profiles from 
/nix/var/nix/gcroots/, otherwise garbage collection will end
  tragically.

more-or-less "asynchronous" booting: the login prompt appears almost
  immediately, before the hardware and the network are started.

0b26af2188 * The installer now installs a configuration on the target device that 
boots into stage 1 (kernel+initrd) succesfully.
  
  `system-configuration.nix' contains the definition of the
  configuration to be installed.  The attribute systemConfiguration is
  installed into the profile /nix/var/nix/profiles/system.  Then the
  program /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration is
  called to finalise the installation.  This program (generated by
  system-configuration.sh) installs Grub on the drive with a menu that
  contains the entry for the desired kernel and initrd.

  In principle this allows us to do rollbacks to previous system
  configurations by doing `nix-env --rollback' and then calling
  switch-to-configuration to update Grub.  Ideally this should be done
  in a single command (and we should consider the obvious risk of
  garbage collecting the current kernel etc. to which the current Grub
  menu points...).

  Maybe the responsibility for generating the Grub menu should be
  placed somewhere else.  For instance, we could generate a Grub menu
  automatically out of all the generations in the `system' profile.

Support booting from something other than a CD.  Add some parameters
  to specify the root device.

afc05314c4 * The installer now takes a user-specified Nix expression that will be 
built in the target Nix store and installed in the "system" user
  environment.  Not quite sure what should go in there, but probably
  the kernel, initrd, the boot scripts and eventually the system
  services.  Maybe grub as well.

to /).
* Stage 2: use sysvinit to create a bunch of mingetty's on virtual
  consoles 1-6.  Show a nice welcoming message.  Start syslogd and log
  everything to tty10.

1aa35c8267 * Instead of adding all of util-linux to the initd, add just mount 
(and nuke its references so that we don't get glibc etc.).  The
  initrd is now 3.2 MB (and that includes the entire staticTools from
  the stdenv bootstrap, most of which we don't actually need).

a94dd5c8b1 * Given a kernel build (with modules in $kernel/lib/modules/VERSION), 
`modules-closure.nix' produces a module tree in
  $out/lib/modules/VERSION that contains only the modules identified
  by `rootModules', plus their dependencies.  It also generates an
  appropriate modules.dep.  This is useful for initrds, as we
  obviously don't want a copy of the entire kernel module tree in the
  initial RAM disk.
