My understanding is that this is an internal implementation detail of the feature launcher. In the 'bundles' directory you find resources that are part of the 'boot' feature, which is the minimum set of bundles need to boostrap Sling. Once the initial bootstrap is done, Sling's OSGi installer will pick up bundles in the 'install' folder, and also folders named 'installer.XXX', where 'XXX' is an active run mode and install them based on the start level. Hope this helps, and if not clear let me know and I'll dig some more. Robert
