0a1fee9ec8 * Add a module for the Broadcom firmware. Also, add it to the

4bc0bfec4c Making the system-tarball-pc boot fine with PXE, and include help files and a
readme file as examples for an easy PXE setup.

This allows booting the NixOS in the system tarball, and thus allows installing nixos.

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.

c4f910f550 * Substitute the path of the system derivation directly in the stage 2
init script.  This removes the need for the `systemConfig' boot
  parameter; `init=<stage-2-init>' is enough.  However, the GRUB menu
  builder still needs to add `systemConfig' to the kernel command line
  for compatibility with old configurations.

c1295661c4 * Added a command `nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader'. This is
like `build-vm', but boots using the regular boot loader (i.e. GRUB
  1 or 2) rather than booting directly from the kernel/initrd.  Thus
  it allows testing of GRUB.
