2018-10-08Fix local path to release notes in error messageThomas Tuegel1-1/+1
The error message when produced when Nix is too old refers the user to a local copy of the NixOS release notes, but the provided path is incorrect.

2015-01-13Revert "Revert "mkOverridable: Use functors to allow overridable functions""Shea Levy1-2/+2
Original commit was reverted due to using features from a newer nix than hydra had, hydra has since been updated This reverts commit 07e726c85c8f36d3a27fb7254f09ac69c7b94c65.

2013-01-28Parameterise the path to nixpkgs.Rickard Nilsson1-3/+4
This makes it possible to build several NixOS systems that use different nixpkgs in the same nix-build invocation. Today, you can't do that since the <nixpkgs> path reference is hard-coded in lib/eval-config.nix.

2012-07-21Revert "allow out-of-tree nixos modules"Mathijs Kwik1-6/+3
This reverts commit b609ff4fcf48b2124d94bf1052c303a36c8cabf1. It turns out this can just be done using "require".
2012-07-21allow out-of-tree nixos modulesMathijs Kwik1-3/+6
The environment variable "NIXOS_EXTRA_MODULES" is now checked to contain a path to a file similar to modules/module-list.nix. This gives the ability to include nixos modules that are not in the nixos source tree. This can be useful for modules that are still experimental, or which aren't useful for other nixos users. Of course, this was already possible to do this using a forked nixos tree, but with this functionality, you can just rely on the nixos channel, easing things a lot.
2012-03-02* Remove the use of the NIXPKGS and NIXOS environment variables.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1

2010-09-13* Added a command `nixos-rebuild build-vm-with-bootloader'. This isEelco Dolstra1-1/+14
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. svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=23747

2009-08-27* lib/eval-config.nix: combined "configuration" and "extraModules"Eelco Dolstra1-3/+2
into one argument "modules". * release.nix: fixed the manual job. * ISO generation: break an infinite recursion. Don't know why this suddenly happens. Probably because of the nixpkgs.config change, but I don't see why. Maybe the option evaluation is too strict. svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=16878

svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=16770
2009-08-11* New nixos-rebuild action: "nixos-rebuild build-vm" builds a virtualEelco Dolstra1-0/+7
machine containing a replica (minus the state) of the system configuration. This is mostly useful for testing configuration changes prior to doing an actual "nixos-rebuild switch" (or even "nixos-rebuild test"). The VM can be started as follows: $ nixos-rebuild build-vm $ ./result/bin/run-*-vm which starts a KVM/QEMU instance. Additional QEMU options can be passed through the QEMU_OPTS environment variable (e.g. QEMU_OPTS="-redir tcp:8080::80" to forward a host port to the guest). The fileSystem attribute of the regular system configuration is ignored (using mkOverride), because obviously we can't allow the VM to access the host's block devices. Instead, at startup the VM creates an empty disk image in ./<hostname>.qcow2 to store the VM's root filesystem. Building a VM in this way is efficient because the VM shares its Nix store with the host (through a CIFS mount). However, because the Nix store of the host is mounted read-only in the guest, you cannot run Nix build actions inside the VM. Therefore the VM can only be reconfigured by re-running "nixos-rebuild build-vm" on the host and restarting the VM. svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=16662

into a NixOS module (modules/system/activation/top-level.nix - couldn't think of a better name). The top-level derivation is returned in config.system.build.system. * Inlined system.sh in top-level.nix so that we don't have to pass everything through environment variables. svn path=/nixos/branches/modular-nixos/; revision=15740

2008-01-12* Option to enable the Intel 3945 firmware. (It's enabled byEelco Dolstra1-2/+1
default since it doesn't seem to have the legal issues of the Intel 2200 firmware.) * Firmware loader: don't write in /tmp. Also a hack to quickly test new firmwares. * Revert r10105 since the build fails if configuration.nix is a symlink. Anyway copying configuration.nix does not necessarily make sense since it can import other expressions, which would also have to be copied. Perhaps a better approach would be to write a serialisation of the config to a file (maybe with builtins.toXML). svn path=/nixos/trunk/; revision=10127
