455db168b3 nixos: iso-image: use syslinux bootloader for USB booting support
This changes the bootloader for iso generation from Grub to
syslinux. In addition this adds USB booting support, so that
"dd" can be used to burn the generated ISO to USB thumbdrives
instead of needing applications like UnetBootin.

nixos-install: Fix copying symlink resolv.conf.
On some non-NixOS systems (for example those using "resolvconf"),
/etc/resolv.conf is a symlink. So let's dereference when copying hasts
and resolv.conf.

aff4394be6 nixos-generate-config: fix nix-env example command

expanded to an empty string. With this change the resulting text is

  $ nix-env -qaP | grep wget

  -env -qaP | grep wget

ab29b6527f nixos-iso: Use a simpler disk label
When formatting a nixos usb using my windows machine I noticed that the
disk labeling using periods was not compatible with my linux kernel /
udev recognition. When labeling a volume NIXOS_14.10 under Windows, it would
show up as NIXOS_14_10 on NixOS. This meant that /dev/root would never come
up at boot time, preventing the livecd from starting.

This patch works around this issue by eliminating any special characters
other than underscores. The previous versioning didn't seem all that
useful, especially when consdering there are many different version of
the year.month named iso.
