Each IC-OS has a 100 MB config partition. All IC-OS config partitions are initialized to be empty, except for SetupOS.

In production, the GuestOS config partition is populated through a series of steps:
In production, configuration is propagated from a partition on the USB installer through each of SetupOS, HostOS and GuestOS:

1. SetupOS copies its configuration files to the HostOS config partition.
2. The HostOS configuration files are used to populate the GuestOS config partition through a more complicated process described below.
# SetupOS reads and validates the config from `/config/`
# SetupOS copies the configuration files to `/var/ic/config/`
# SetupOS copies the configuration files to the HostOS config partition.
# HostOS reads the configuration from `/boot/config`. These files are used to populate the GuestOS config partition through a more complicated process described below.
