Eelco Dolstra b14f80c89a * The modprobe wrapper nowadays checks whether the version of the
current kernel module tree matches the booted kernel, so it should
  be safe to use after an upgrade.

Eelco Dolstra a5c433696c * Put all of /var/run (not just /var/run/nscd) on a tmpfs to simplify
shutdown.  (Portmap and statd are needed during shutdown to unmount
  NFS volumes but have open files in /var/run.)
* In the shutdown job, don't kill PIDs belonging to Upstart jobs that
  are still running.  If they don't stop on the "starting shutdown"
  event, then they're needed during shutdown (such as portmap and
  statd).
* NFS test: test whether the shutdown quickly unmounts NFS volumes
  (i.e. whether portmap and statd are still running).

Eelco Dolstra c089738bdc * Use the shadow' package instead of pwdutils', `pam_login' and
`su'.
* The `usermod' from `shadow' allows setting a supplementary group
  equal to the user's primary group, so the special hack for the
  `nixbld' group is no longer needed.
* Removed /etc/default/passwd since it's not used by the new passwd.
  The hash is configured in pam_unix.
* Move some values for `security.setuidPrograms' and
  `security.pam.services' to the appropriate modules.

/var/log/upstart/<jobname> rather than spamming the console with it.

Lluís Batlle i Rossell d7406769ac Making /var/run/utmp writable by the 'utmp' group.
Then, people can choose a setgid utmp for their xterm, konsole or whatever to get the terminals
reported there.

Marc Weber 4d7e344f69 Adding initial version of the nixos cd insallation test script using
qemu_kvm. Installation doesn't take place yet. VM is started
printing a remote controlled "Hello".

This serves as example how to run a vm within a bulid job.

Eelco Dolstra 9bf8801dc6 * Use a tmpfs for /var/run/nscd to ensure that / or /var can be
unmounted or at least remounted read-only during shutdown.  Upstart
  0.6 apparently uses nscd to do some name lookups, resulting in it
  holding some mmap mappings to deleted files in /var/run/nscd.
  E.g. lsof shows:

    init         1 root  DEL       REG              253,0          1850313 /var/run/nscd/dbyn3Piz
    init         1 root  DEL       REG              253,0          1850312 /var/run/nscd/dbt2e8PH

  See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=324900.
  This is a workaround - it would be better if Upstart didn't do this.

Eelco Dolstra 11022e8d9f * Back out r17946 and 17948 because it doesn't work. I've seen it
fail to update /etc twice now.  It's also unnecessarily complex
  IMHO (see nix-dev).

Eelco Dolstra 5dfaf565bf * On the CD or on a newly installed system, create the root account
with an empty password, rather than with a hashed empty password.
  The latter is a security risk, because it allows remote root logins
  if a user enables sshd before setting a proper root password.
* Allow empty passwords for login and slim, but nothing else.

Eelco Dolstra f9cfe7c4ee * The activation script can't use /bin/sh as its interpreter because
it creates the /bin/sh symlink, which may not exist yet (esp. when
  booting from CD).

Eelco Dolstra ec55562ec3 * Move the configuration of the pwdutils (passwd, useradd etc.) to
modules/programs/pwdutils.
* Renamed config.system.shell to config.users.defaultUserShell and
  updated the description to make clear it has to be a non-store
  path.
