Ian Wienand 12b60c4088 Mount /sys RO As noted inline, this works around potential issues by being a strong indication you are in a container (e.g. [1]). Since nothing should be changing anything on the host/build system, this is a generically safer way to operate.

==============
ubuntu-minimal
==============

The ``ubuntu-minimal`` element uses debootstrap for generating a
minimal image. In contrast the ``ubuntu`` element uses the cloud-image
as the initial base.

By default this element creates the latest LTS release.  The exact
setting can be found in the element's ``environment.d`` directory in
the variable ``DIB_RELEASE``.  If a different release of Ubuntu should
be created, the variable ``DIB_RELEASE`` can be set appropriately.

Note that this element installs ``systemd-sysv`` as the init system for
18.04+.
