 In theory, at this stage, the machine is ready to be controlled by Ansible.
 However, Ansible fails at first, because for some reason, `pacstrap` in the “front” Ansible role fails to initialize the DMZ if the location already contains mount points, so:

+. I had to temporarily unmount everything under `/var/lib/machines/{front-name}`, and delete `/var/lib/machines/{front-name}/*`.
 . I also temporarily commented out the whole front-half of `site.xml`, as well as the “front-run” role of the back part.
 . Then I ran Ansible again.
 . When the DMZ was correctly initialized, I renamed `/var/lib/machines/{front-name}/var` to `/var/lib/machines/{front-name}/var.new`.
