Yolanda Robla d5a6a7cb44 Add force-confdef in debian package install In certain cases, with packages cached that need an upgrade, when performing that action the system hangs waiting for a prompt. Add force-confdef option, that will let dpkg overwrite configuration packages that were not modified. In combination with already existing force-confold flag, it will allow to avoid any conffile prompt. Change-Id: Ifb177f9ac2c9ad29f8b92309c5b8cfe8e60a4e14		2016-02-16 14:10:19 +01:00

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.
