Thanks for the hint, but yea, I'd greped through the /etc/init.d  
scripts and found nothing Sugary going on in there. FWIW, there's no  
livesys script. This may well be something new related to vmdk that's  
being used here, I've seen vdi images before and even just booted from  
the iso, as is (for quick tests), but first time I've seen/tried a vmdk.
