93bcd71b15 This update fixes a few critical errors:
- cd to the right directory when making the initramfs image (stupid stupid stupid mistake, cost me a day of work!)
- make a bunch of devices inside the ramdisk
- copy the kernel and all modules to the CD image
- set the #! line in fill-disk to the right place (as in, append /bin/sh, another stupidity, which was luckily easily spot after fixing the first mistake, which was far more important)

9c56696e75 support for initrd. Right now the image is *WAY* too big, so it boots with
a kernel panic. initrd should be brought back to a few megabytes instead
so it can be safely unzipped in memory.

Ideas:
- klibc instead of glibc
- leave out a lot of packages in the initrd:
  - gcc
  - linux-headers
  - ...
- have a minimal "stage 1", which mounts the CD (figure out how) and
remounts part of the CD on /nix and /nixpkgs
