This brings up the next logical question - where is the installer?  I'd already 
done a grep and looked into the volume of output.  You could ask why don't I 
read the code.  Yes, only if I know what I'm reading is the "correct" 
file/code.  Otherwise, I could be spending a lot of time reading a lot of 
unrelated codes.


If I did "dd" of .hddimg to SSD, there's only 1 partition.  If I could locate 
where the logic is that generates this .hddimg file, perhaps I could figure out 
how it creates its single partition, and perhaps add one or more partitions to 
it as well.

The easiest thing would be to edit the installer script that goes into
the hddimg to create your extra partitions and whatever else you want
done.
