only the first generation in the list.  (From Karn Kallio.)

8c960af984 * Handle the case where /boot is on the same filesystem as /
but on a different filesystem than /nix/store.  In that case
  we need to copy the kernels and initrds to /boot.

d659488209 * Use the regular GRUB menu builder for Amazon. There are two issues:
we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
  (because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
  requires "root (hd0)".  For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
  to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
  generated without installing GRUB.  For the second, add an option
  boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
  to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").

a65b5ec81c * Added an option boot.loader.grub.extraConfig to add commands to
grub.cfg before the menu entries.  (This could also be done using
  `extraEntriesBeforeNixOS', but then you can't have entries *after*
  the main entry anymore.)
* In the installer test, redirect GRUB output to the serial port.

093b51a562 Removing references to linux kernel 'vmlinuz', and making them point to 'bzImage'.
That should match with a related change in nixpkgs.

deb4f88c2c * Let the GRUB menu builder detect whether /boot is on a different
partition from /.  If so, copy the kernels and initrds to /boot and
  use paths relative to /boot in the GRUB configuration file.  This
  makes the boot.loader.grub.bootDevice option obsolete.  (Is there a
  way to mark obsolete options?)  It also makes it unnecessary to set
  boot.loader.grub.copyKernels, although that option is still
  available since it can speed up GRUB if the Nix store is very
  large.

8d588424d2 * switch-to-configuration: force a reinstallation of GRUB whenever the
GRUB version changes.  (That's the complete version from the name
  attribute, not the boot.loader.grub.version attribute.)  The current
  version is recorded in /boot/grub/version.  This is required to
  prevent massive breakage when we change the default value of
  boot.loader.grub.version to "2".

79bcc7618e * Make the graphical boot work on GRUB 2 in the case where /nix/store
is not on the same partition as /boot (i.e. when
  boot.loader.grub.bootDevice is set): just copy the background image
  and the font to /boot.

different for GRUB 2?)

* Renamed some of the new Grub options to more sensible names
  (e.g. extraGrubEntries to extraEntries, bootMount to bootDevice,
  etc.).

75f6cd20da Making modular my previous changes for armv5tel. I updated the way to use
grub. Its options are no more inside 'boot', but inside 'boot.loader.grub'.
I added a new bootloader configuration for nixos, generationsDir. It creates
/boot/default/{init,initrd,kernel,system} symlinks, and the same for the generations
in /boot/system-$gen/{init,initrd,kernel,system}.

I can program the u-boot loader to load /boot/default files always, and have
a minimal nixos boot loader installer functionality. Additionally, I can refer
to the other system generations easily, with a simple 'ls' in /boot.

empty now), do more of bashrc.sh declaratively, and moved nsswitch
  generation to modules/config/nsswitch.nix.
