[Bug 751531] Re: Add support for rootfs post-processing in l-m-c

 

Since the branch is a proof-of-concept and perhaps not ready for
merging, I won't have time to bring it in for 2011.10 (today). I hope
it's ok to push it to 2011.11.

** Changed in: linaro-image-tools
    Milestone: 2011.10 => 2011.11

Title:
  Add support for rootfs post-processing in l-m-c

Status in Linaro Image Tools:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  It is currently tedious to customize the produced images each time
  they are created. This deters developers from changing and testing
  images often, especially when they want to use images for development
  or complicated testing. Needed customizations include everything from
  installing packages to adding configuration files (ssh, network,
  editors).

  A simple but effective solution is for l-m-c to allow the execution of
  a user shell script after the rootfs has been populated. l-m-c should
  pass all necessary information to the script (location of rootfs,
  default user etc). The script can then do whatever it wants to
  customize the image according to each user's needs (copy files into
  the rootfs, chroot and install packages etc).
