in fact FAI bind-mounts a temporary copy of the configuration, which lives in
/tmp/fai-config.XXXXXX, to /fai.
IMHO Thomas introduced that to be able to store a packages repository within
$FAI/files/packages...

my opinion is to remove this mount once and for all. FAI-internal we have
$FAI pointing to the configuration space; and storing a package repository
within it is a bad hack: in the end, the configuration space is for
configuration and not for packages.
