[Nix-dev] systemd in initrd

[Luca Bruno]

 Wall hit: systemd calls binaries like mount etc.

First problem: they are hardcoded paths to the nix store, and it's hard to
change those references.
Possible solution: rebuild systemd in order to call /bin/mount instead.
That's easy.

Second problem: after switching root, those binaries are no more available.
Not only, even if they were, they would be the busybox binaries.
Possible solution: hardcode systemd paths to use
/run/current-system/sw/bin. In initrd it would be a matter of creating the
directory.

Thoughts?
