CLI Example:

salt 'minion' seed.whatever path id [config=config_data] \
        [gen_key=(true|false)] [approve_key=(true|false)] \
        [install=(true|false)]
path
Full path to the directory, device, or disk image on the target minion's file system.
id
Minion id with which to seed the path.
config
Minion configuration options. By default, the 'master' option is set to the target host's 'master'.

install
Install salt-minion, if absent. Default: true.
