# TODO:
# . pick a loop device sanely
# - adapt size of partition to fit volume
# - fix hostname, root password
# - (once debugging diminishes) umount, losetup -d, maybe rm -r
# - avoid race conditions with other loop-device users, too (somehow)
# - get numbers from actual source partition table rather than
#   as magic numbers based on what sipb-xen-make-iso does with etch.
