ad22e587ab * nixos-rebuild: do a nix-pull on the Nixpkgs channel manifest. I.e., you
don't need to be subscribed to the Nixpkgs channel to get binary downloads.
  This is possible because nix-pull is now pretty fast.

c10fe148a3 * /var/run/current-system symlinks to the top-level path of the system
configuration now.

  boot time.

582abdaae2 * Option boot.copyKernels to copy all kernels and initrd to
/boot/kernels.  This is necessary if /nix is on a different file
  system than /.  (And it will allow us to support a separate /boot
  partition too.)

923348b490 * Provide a script "nixos-checkout" to replace the NixOS/Nixpkgs
sources in /etc/nixos with a Subversion checkout of those trees.
  This should be run after a successful installation if you want to
  keep NixOS up to date from Subversion.

4f64075215 * Installer: defaults for all arguments. The NixOS sources are
assumed to be in /etc/nixos/nixos and the system configuration in
  /etc/nixos/configuration.nix.  This is overridable through a few
  environment variables.
* Installer: check that the mount point does in fact have a file
  system mounted on it (so that we don't install in an empty /mnt),
  and don't unmount afterwards for symmetry.

4b7e9b5401 * Instructions on testing the installer without having to make an ISO
/ burn a CD, namely by making a loopback target file system.
* Installer: continue if the MANIFEST on the CD is missing (useful if
  we're not actually installing from a CD).

3e7f4280df * activate-configuration.sh: make sure that we're running on a NixOS
installation to prevent horrible accidents.
* Add the kernel parameters to isolinux.cfg.
* Use useradd/groupadd to create users/groups; use Glibc's getent to
  check for existence.
* Create the root account properly.
