The application will now create a clone of the hdd

  Made it so that the we clone the hdd before launching the instance,
  this way we don't have to worry about the drive going away; and
  we can use the same image to create multiple instances. This does
  add a bit to the bootup process, and the drive does need to be
  cloned. Might be interesting to look into COW/Union fs for this type
  of thing.
