0b26af2188 * The installer now installs a configuration on the target device that
boots into stage 1 (kernel+initrd) succesfully.
  
  `system-configuration.nix' contains the definition of the
  configuration to be installed.  The attribute systemConfiguration is
  installed into the profile /nix/var/nix/profiles/system.  Then the
  program /nix/var/nix/profiles/system/bin/switch-to-configuration is
  called to finalise the installation.  This program (generated by
  system-configuration.sh) installs Grub on the drive with a menu that
  contains the entry for the desired kernel and initrd.

  In principle this allows us to do rollbacks to previous system
  configurations by doing `nix-env --rollback' and then calling
  switch-to-configuration to update Grub.  Ideally this should be done
  in a single command (and we should consider the obvious risk of
  garbage collecting the current kernel etc. to which the current Grub
  menu points...).

  Maybe the responsibility for generating the Grub menu should be
  placed somewhere else.  For instance, we could generate a Grub menu
  automatically out of all the generations in the `system' profile.

afc05314c4 * The installer now takes a user-specified Nix expression that will be
built in the target Nix store and installed in the "system" user
  environment.  Not quite sure what should go in there, but probably
  the kernel, initrd, the boot scripts and eventually the system
  services.  Maybe grub as well.

  everything to tty10.

  initrd is now 3.2 MB (and that includes the entire staticTools from
  the stdenv bootstrap, most of which we don't actually need).

a94dd5c8b1 * Given a kernel build (with modules in $kernel/lib/modules/VERSION),
`modules-closure.nix' produces a module tree in
  $out/lib/modules/VERSION that contains only the modules identified
  by `rootModules', plus their dependencies.  It also generates an
  appropriate modules.dep.  This is useful for initrds, as we
  obviously don't want a copy of the entire kernel module tree in the
  initial RAM disk.
