"Install to Disk" on a live disc dd's the premade ext3/4 filesystem
image to the hard drive and then resizes it. This is fundamentally the
same installation path that we're talking about here. (In the Pi remix,
for example, the dd to SD card is done by an installer script on another
machine, and the resize is done on first boot.) In both cases, we're
using a prebuilt filesystem image rather than the traditional RPM-by-RPM
installation.
