It needs udevd to be running because the modules may require
firmware. Thanks to Mathijs and Arie for pointing this out.

modprobe.
* Move the implementation of boot.kernelModules from the udev job to
the activation script. This prevents races with the udev job.
* Drop references to the "capability" kernel module, which no longer
exists.

currently, only support for fully disabling nvidia is provided, which
is helpful for saving power/heat.
In the future, this should be extended so we can choose:
- nvidia only (choose between nouveau/nvidia driver)
- IGP only
- Hybrid (choose between nouveau/nvidia driver, use the "bumblebee" package/daemon)

pierron recommended the use of types.string over mergeOptionString, as
it is superior but might break things.
For my system the change evaluated to the exactly same.

* Don't enable the PolicyKit module by default either, it's also
obsolete (replaced by PolKit). It's still enabled if HAL is
enabled.

from udev rules. This is slightly tricky because udev has a
512-character limit on environment variables, so we create a symlink
tree to work around this.

it allows the `mountall' task to start mounting filesystems as soon
as udev is running and devices become available (i.e. it doesn't
have to wait for all devices). This means that some jobs should
depend on "stopped udevtrigger" instead of "started udev".

to use the standard (coreutils) tools.
* Use util-linux's `switch_root' to switch over to the target root
FS. It automatically moves over the /dev, /proc and /sys from stage
1, so stage 2 doesn't need to set them up again.

unnecessary. Also, we now get /dev/disk/by-{label,uuid} symlinks

suspends/resumes etc.

* dbus: don't signal Upstart, since that seems to make it forget about
pending events or something. In any case starting dbus after acpid
was running wouldn't trigger hal to be started (but the other way
around did work).

is "ready". This prevents ugly race conditions, e.g. HAL failing to
start because dbus hasn't finished starting yet.
* Support post-start scripts. These are executed after the job's main
process has started but before the job's "started" event is
emitted. For instance, the udev job uses this to perform "udevadm
trigger / settle" to create all devices. Previously this had to be
done in the pre-start script, so the daemon had to started in the
pre-start script as well.
