On a closer inspection this alternative (2) does not look so
attractive. IIUC, The classes to determine the geronimo install
directory and directory copy are available in system module. Either we
duplicate the code in kernel or wait till later (after booting kernel,
loading bootstrap configuration..) to fail if the instance data is not
found. 
   Yet another alternative (3) is to modify the build and create a
geronimo/var and make 'var' read only.
