3abf5072ce * Installation CD: start a web browser showing the NixOS manual on

  manual anyway.

37c17d7601 * When runtime switching to a new configuration, stop/start/restart
Upstart jobs as appropriate.  I.e., if a job exists in the old but
  not the new configuration, stop it; if it exists in the new but not
  the old, start it; and most interesting, if it exists in both but
  its store paths differ, restart it.  So the purely functional model
  combined cryptographic hashing allows us to precisely identify how
  two configurations differ from each other
