* Disable wicd in the installation CD for now, because it causes
...
dhcpcd to segfault randomly or give corrupt output. See e.g.
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2380666/nixlog/1/raw
The problem seems to be that wicd sends a "-k" command to dhcpcd to
release the interface, which doesn't work well with a dhcpcd that
handles all interfaces in one process.

I update the name of the memtest entry in grub of the iso images,
...
because it can be overriden choosing another memtest86.
As an effect of a change in nixpgks, the isos will include
memtest86 4.0a instead of memtest86+ 4.20, only because the
former is released later, and I deduce it should work better.

* Load scsi_wait_scan after all other kernel modules to ensure that
all SCSI device nodes have been created.
* Increase the timeout for the appearance of the root device to 20
seconds.
* Do a "udevadm settle" just after the root device has appeared to
make sure that udev isn't accessing the device anymore (hopefully).
On EC2 (Xen), I've seen fsck on the root fail randomly with "device
in use" errors.
