49e8829053 * Use unionfs to provide a real Live CD, i.e., the files on the CD
appear writable (though all writes go to a tmpfs).  This allows you
  to run Nix operations on the Live CD.  However, we're not quite
  there yet since the CD doesn't have a valid Nix database.  So for
  instance a garbage collect will cause everything to be deleted,
  hanging the system.

7243eb1d1d * Create /bin on the CD to suppress the /bin/sh symlink creation
error.
* Put the top-level system config on the CD, otherwise root doesn't
  get a working login shell on the CD (and the system PATH is broken
  as well).

c10fe148a3 * /var/run/current-system symlinks to the top-level path of the system

* /var/run/booted-system symlinks to the system configuration used at
  boot time.

f25ce41c18 * Option boot.doHardwareScan to disable the hardware scan. Also, if
the flag "safemode" is specified on the kernel command line, also
  disable the hardware scan.
* Option boot.kernelModules to specify a set of modules to be loaded
  in stage 2 (in addition to the initrd modules in
  boot.initrd.kernelModules).

3e7f4280df * activate-configuration.sh: make sure that we're running on a NixOS
installation to prevent horrible accidents.
* Add the kernel parameters to isolinux.cfg.
* Use useradd/groupadd to create users/groups; use Glibc's getent to
  check for existence.
* Create the root account properly.

9986bda673 * Move the stuff in boot-stage-2-init.sh that doesn't have to happen
at boot time into a separate script.  This will allow us to change
  the configuration without rebooting (provided that the configuration
  doesn't have a different kernel, init, etc.).
