The Template Builder
======================

1) First, create a clean image of Fedora Linux install. You can use the fedoraize_image
script for this:

fedorize_image <image> <file-with-packets-lists>

NOTE: The fedorize_image script can be also used to update an image -- it
automatically assumes the update mode if the <image> already exists.

2) Update symlinks in rpms_to_install_XXX/ so that they point to the current version
of Qubes-specific rpms to install you want to use (e.g. qubes-gui-vm, etc).

3) Now, you can "qubeize" the image. This must be done as root. E.g.:

# ./qubeize_image <img> <template-name>

4) Make sure the symlinks in vm_kernels_XXX/ point to correct kernel and initramfs
files you want to use for the template:

4a) In order to prepare a patched initramfs file, use the
patch_appvm_initramfs.sh program that is installed as part of
qubes-core-dom0.rpm:

# /usr/lib/qubes/patch_appvm_initramfs.sh \
	<original_initrafms> \
	 <filename_for_patched_initramfs> \
	 /abs_path/vm-initramfs-patches/qubes_cow_setup.sh 


5) Finally, build the Template RPM (do it as normal user, not root), e.g.: 

$./build_rpm <name>

The resulting rpm is stored in rpm/noarch directory.
