Yeah, I know about the vfstab problem. It bites me all the time since
my install server uses ZFS, and I have to remember to modify /etc/vfstab
to set mount-at-boot to "n". (When I forget, the first time I reboot
after installing a new version of the boot media on the install server,
the boot fails due to milestone system/filesystem-local or somesuch.)
