> would it be a good idea to have sysupdate source rootstub?

i worked on this for a day and then gave up. its too hard and
too complicated.

sysupdate would need some check to update itself in case
there needs to be stuff like this. but how do you deploy
THAT change? the only way is to fork everything. have
a thumbstone commit with the sysupdate change. and then
the next sysupdate goes to a new repository.

on the other hand, its not so easy to automate creating
stuff in the root. initially, the root of the fileserver
was readonly and the only way to create directories there
was console command. what if you don't run sysupdate on
the fileserver but from a cpu server? then you can't
access the fileserver console.
