core/base: basic, little-interactivity installation with some common defaults. You probably don't
want to run this one, although it's useful for other procedures to inherit from.
core/interactive: interactive, reasonably flexible/featured installer (port of /arch/setup)
-core/quickinst: mostly DIY. port of /arch/quickinst
core/automatic: automatic installer/deployment tool, can use config files
