29d84af677 * Remove the use of the NIXPKGS and NIXOS environment variables.
Instead use $NIX_PATH.  NIXOS_CONFIG is still supported.

20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc.
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.

9c722e474d - Added nixos-build-vms command, which builds a virtual network from a network.nix expression (also used by nixos-deploy-network)
- Added a backdoor option to the interactive run-vms script. This allows me to intergrate the virtual network approach with Disnix
- Small documentation fixes

Some explanation:

The nixos-build-vms command line tool can be used to build a virtual network of a network.nix specification.
For example, a network configuration (network.nix) could look like this:

{
  test1 = 
    {pkgs, config, ...}:
 
    {
      services.openssh.enable = true;
      ...
    };

  test2 =
    {pkgs, config, ...}:
    
    {
      services.openssh.enable = true;
      services.xserver.enable = true;
    }

    ;
}

By typing the following instruction:

$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix

a virtual network is built, which can be started by typing:

$ ./result/bin/run-vms

It is also possible to enable a backdoor. In this case *.socket files are stored in the current directory
which can be used by the end-user to invoke remote instruction on a VM in the network through a Unix
domain socket.

For example by building the network with the following instructions:

$ nixos-build-vms -n network.nix --use-backdoor

and launching the virtual network:

$ ./result/bin/run-vms

You can find two socket files in your current directory, namely: test1.socket and test2.socket.
These Unix domain sockets can be used to remotely administer the test1 and test2 machine
in the virtual network.

For example by running:

$ socat ./test1.socket stdio
ls /root

You can retrieve the contents of the /root directory of the virtual machine with identifier test1

122e125d6b Added the nixos-deploy-network tool. With this tool you can write a network of NixOS configurations, e.g.:
{
  test1 = {pkgs, config, ...}:
    {
       # NixOS config of machine test1
       ...
    };

  test2 = {pkgs, config, ...}:
    {
       # NixOS config of machine test2
       ...
    };
}

And an infrastructure expression, e.g:

{
  test1 = {
    hostName = "test1.example.org";
    system = "i686-linux";
  };
  test2 = {
    hostName = "test2.example.org";
    system = "x86_64-linux";
  };
}

And by executing:

nixos-deploy-network -n network.nix -i infrastructure.nix

The system configurations in the network expression are built, transferred to the machines in the network and finally activated.

1dd3162d7c First attempt at trying to get a tarball of a bootable nixos system.
What I want with this derivation is to allow the sheevaplug nixos to
build a tarball with all the needed files to boot. Then, this can be
unpacked into an SD card, or into a NFS/TFTP server, and then the
user can boot the system with help of the uboot console.
By now, I have only tried to build the tarball in a PC, in order
to develop the nix expressions quicker.

There is nothing written specialy for the Sheevaplug in all this,
by now.

  Using nix-push we create a channel that contains some stuff (namely
  the GNU Hello source tarball and the rlwrap program).  This was a
  bit tricky because nix-push requires a writable Nix store.  Using
  AUFS this is possible, but not on recent Linux kernels (AUFS1 over
  CIFS fails).

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.

6c9059e717 * Added an option `boot.initrd.availableKernelModules' that specifies
modules that should be added to the initrd, but should only be
  loaded on demand (e.g. by the kernel or by udev).  This is
  especially useful in the installation CD, where we now only load the
  modules needed by the hardware.
* Enable automatic modprobing by udev in the initrd.

401fd84ae1 kvm installation test update + NixOS installation archive
You can run the kvm nixos installation test by:
  nix-build --no-out-link tests/test-nixos-install-from-cd.nix
It boots the installed system.
It still fails sshd isn't started (yet)

adding nixos-bootstrapping-archive:
You can install NixOS easily using any live cd now.
