 +
 +  * Port the Provisioning Agent to %%FreeBSD%%. This is just a shell script run once after first boot, which provisions a VM from template fillout hosted in a custom ISO image. /etc/rc integration is needed. See /opt/vmware/www/provagent/.build/etc/vmware-studio in the VMWare Studio 2.6 image.
