Deploying parts of the image to local disk

For some machines, having all or part of the root filesystem reside on a local disk may be desirable. This is accomplished by using the DEPLOYMOUNT and DEPLOYSWAP directives in combination with the mk-diskful script. These directives cause oneSIS to create partitions and copy portions of the root filesystem to one or more local disks on a machine.

If a BOOTLOADER directive is defined for a node, and the /boot directory is deployed on a local disk, the specified bootloader will be installed.
