I'm fine with this, although it raises the question if we ought to be doing anything more than tar rootfs in include files like this. there are ia32 machines where a live image is not useful (although rare). Most x86 BSPs would add live - but then again, most x86 BSPs will be starting to consolidate on the genericx86 BSPs anyway.... But, this is a clear improvement as is.
