Marek Marczykowski 75a63613bc cleanup-image: smart image shrink using fstrim
Linux loop driver support TRIM operation for some time (from 3.1
kernel), which is mapped to hole punch operation in underlying
filesystem (which must support it - ext* and xfs have it).
This is much faster and less space consuming than previous cp --sparse
method.

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/ using the create_symlinks_in_rpms_to_install_dir.sh script. The script
reads the core, gui, and xen packages versions from version_{core,gui,xen} files and creates appropriate symlinks
in rpms_to_install/ dir.

Verify that all symlinks are correct.

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

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

4) 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.
