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.
from sudoers (5):
When multiple entries match for a user, they are applied in order.
Where there are multiple matches, the last match is used (which is not necessarily the most specific match).
I'm not sure what exactly this user is needed for, i.e. under what circumstances
it must exist or not, but creating it unconditionally seems like the wrong thing
to do. I complained to @offlinehacker about this on Github, but got no response
for a week or so. I'm disabling the extraUsers bit to put out the fire, and now
hope that someone who actually knows about Graphite implements a proper solution
later.
I.e. don't call "passwd" to update /etc/shadow from the "password"
option. This has the side-effect of not updating the password if
mutableUsers = true (since the code path for "hashedPassword" has a
check for mutableUsers).
Fixes#4747.
images. Root disks are now SSD backed and 20GB by default, both on hvm and pv-grub
(previously was 8GB for HVM). Added new eu-central region to the locations to copy images
to. Also the root disk for HVM instances was not deleted on termination with previous
images, this is fixed as well.
Partially and temporarily addresses NixOS/nixops#228.
We now have an up-to-date version of Blivet and a bunch of its dependen-
cies as well as the old nixpart 0.4 with all its old and crappy
dependencies, which should fix _simple_ partitioning layouts for NixOps.
Also, nixpart 1.0 is now marked as broken, because it is not yet
released and this branch is more of a preparation and "damage control"
in case I shouldn't manage to finish nixpart + nixos-assimilate in time
for the next NixOS release.
Once nixpart 1.0 is released we then only need to delete one single
directory rather than searching for needles in a haystack, that is, all
of <nixpkgs>. Also, it keeps my sanity at an almost healthy level.

Quite a mess but at least the mdraid tests succeed now. However, the
lvm2 tests are still failing, so we need to bring back a few more old
crap :-(

I'm really not sure whether these tests are actually run upstream,
because there are quite a few oddities which either are my fault by just
missing something important or upstream really doesn't bother to run
those tests.
One example of this are testDiskChunk1 and testDiskChunk2, which create
two non-existing partitions and tries to allocate them. Now, in
allocatePartitions(), the partedPartition attributes are reset to None
and shortly afterwards a for loop is expecting it to be NOT None.
So, for now I'm disabling these tests and will see if we stumble on them
during work on nixpart 1.0, so we're really sure whether it's my fault
or a real bug in blivet.

I'm not using JFS, but this is to mainly make jfsutils available if you
have defined a JFS filesystem in your configuration.

Put a copy of old version 0.17 expression into 0.17.nix and update the
pointers from nixpart0 accordingly.
This also means, that plain nixpart is now way more broken than
nixpart0 (we might want to temporarily fix 0.4 anyway).
