Create blankspace partitions based on size requested in deployment request that
accompanies workspace metadata

------- Comment #1 From Tim Freeman 2007-04-16 12:16:26 -------

For TP 1.2.3:

Blankspace partitions are created based on size requested in deployment
request, uses a script callout which is currently implemented as dd sparse file
+ ext2 filesystem. Supporting multiple filesystems would require a change to
metadata as well as adding factory RPs saying which are supported at the site. 

So this is simple support for now, more generalized support should follow in
later releases.
