pretty weird place to keep large source trees.

dhcpcd to segfault randomly or give corrupt output. See e.g.
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2380666/nixlog/1/raw
The problem seems to be that wicd sends a "-k" command to dhcpcd to
release the interface, which doesn't work well with a dhcpcd that
handles all interfaces in one process.

memtest86 4.0a instead of memtest86+ 4.20, only because the
former is released later, and I deduce it should work better.

* Load scsi_wait_scan after all other kernel modules to ensure that

make sure that udev isn't accessing the device anymore (hopefully).
On EC2 (Xen), I've seen fsck on the root fail randomly with "device
