When you're configuring the image, is the network stack usable? I currently use Boxgrinder, and the most frustrating limitation is that I can't start and interact with network daemons to initialize things that way, because it's really just a chroot jail (in the Linux sense). Consequently, I have to isolate the embedded databases of the services I'm configuring and install them directly as files.
