The original approach was to pass each and every command line parameter to the block device. While the block device functionality gets extended, this is not any longer practical. Instead of passing in all the parameters separately this patch collects these in a YAML file that is passed in to the block device layer.

Image building tools for OpenStack ================================== ``diskimage-builder`` is a flexible suite of components for building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk images for use with OpenStack. This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using `elements`; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements. For example:: $ DIB_RELEASE=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntu will create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty based ``qcow2`` image. ``diskimage-builder`` is useful to anyone looking to produce customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the components of `TripleO <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO>`__ that are responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with `nodepool <http://docs.openstack.org/infra/system-config/nodepool.html>`__. Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
