By the way, doesn't this contradict the idea of the host-only mode?

     Host-Only mode: Install only what is needed for booting the local host
     instead of a generic host and generate host-specific configuration.

Thus, including hard-coded, non-overridable UUID references to a local
hard disk doesn't really create a config for a "generic" host as should 
be done without the host-only option? Having a rd.swap parameter really
would help :-)

cu,
Frank
