+# We made firstboot a native systemd service, so it can no longer be turned
+# off with chkconfig. It should be possible to turn it off with systemctl, but
+# that doesn't work right either. For now, this is good enough: the firstboot
+# service will start up, but this tells it not to run firstboot. I suspect the
+# other services 'disabled' below are not actually getting disabled properly,
