gitlab.haskell.org maintenance starting now

[Bryan Richter]

Sadly, no. The issue is at a level below backups. And for a reason I
haven't looked into yet, there are no previous NixOS generations available
to roll back to.

The principal issue is that while booting, NixOS Stage 1 prints the message
"cannot import 'rpool': more than one matching pool". The root filesystem
is in that pool, so booting fails.

Unfortunately I don't know why it says that. From within a rescue system, I
can see just one pool named "rpool", and I can import it and mount
filesystems from it just fine. So the current task is figuring out why
NixOS Stage 1 sees otherwise.
