Open Stack

Sure - in the image you can install a boot block and boot loader -
that should work today.

Installing boot loaders is an interesting problem because it's an
interaction between the OS and the hardware: the right loader to use
depends on the hardware (BIOS/UEFI) and OS (32-bit/64-bit...). I Don't
think that we have a good consensus yet on how to divide up the work
to preserve abstraction layers and handle this super nicely.
