Adding DIB section
The image-guide lacks any mention of diskimage-builder, which is odd, as it's an openstack project itself. This change adds a section for DIB, an example, and links to the project. Change-Id: I892973ac32a5b853aa69d3638735cdeb64cf6551

>diskimage-builder</link> is an automated disk image creation
|
||||||
|
tool that supports a variety of distributions and architectures.
|
||||||
|
Diskimage-builder (DIB) can build images for Fedora, Redhat,
|
||||||
|
Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and openSUSE. DIB is organized in a series
|
||||||
|
of elements that build on top of each other to create specific
|
||||||
|
images.</para>
|
||||||
|
<para>To build an image, call the following script:</para>
|
||||||
|
<screen><prompt>#</prompt> <userinput>disk-image-create ubuntu vm</userinput></screen>
|
||||||
|
<para>This example creates a generic, bootable Ubuntu image of the latest
|
||||||
|
release.</para>
|
||||||
|
<para>Further customization could be accomplished by setting
|
||||||
|
environment variables or adding elements to the command-line:</para>
|
||||||
|
<screen><prompt>#</prompt> <userinput>disk-image-create -a armhf ubuntu vm</userinput></screen>
|
||||||
|
<para>This example creates the image as before, but for arm architecture.
