Bob van der Linden 8d092270d2 nixos: iso-image: use syslinux bootloader for USB booting support 
This changes the bootloader for iso generation from Grub to
syslinux. In addition this adds USB booting support, so that
"dd" can be used to burn the generated ISO to USB thumbdrives
instead of needing applications like UnetBootin.

wmertens 0b34eb1493 Allow starting a shell on stage 1 failure 
When people copy the ISO to USB it can happen that the root device isn't known. Having a shell greatly improves that situation.

nixos/manual: Use literalExample when feasible. 
Should bring most of the examples into a better consistency regarding
syntactic representation in the manual.

Thanks to @devhell for reporting.

Eelco Dolstra 29027fd1e1 Rewrite ‘with pkgs.lib’ -> ‘with lib’ 
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
