Comment (by anarcat):

 one thing to consider is that if we're ready to go the pure-systemd way,
 we can totally get rid of `/etc/fstab` and rely on the magics of systemd
 for boot.

 https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/DiscoverablePartitionsSpec/
 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd#GPT_partition_automounting
 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Swap#Activation_by_systemd

 this way we just have to partition and format the disks 'just so', mount
 and debootstrap and everything follows.
