ORBIT-USER: baseline image.

baseline.ndz would be the name of the image which is a string, so the
syntactically right thing would have been:

    node.image = "baseline.ndz"
                        ^                   ^   note string delimeters.

While this won't throw the FATAL error you saw it most likely doesn't
do much in the currently deployed nodehandler.

The way to deploy images is to run the 'imageNodes' or better
'imageNodes4' commands.
