Wow! Thank you very much. This is *exactly* what I was looking for. The readme even states, under "Future stuff": "* use a similar method for other things that need root access, e.g. live cloud images?" > As you you will see, these scripts work by starting a kvm image and > kicking vmdebootstrap / openstack-debian-images inside the VM. > The idea is that nothing runs as root on DSA controlled machines. > > Also as a personal note: > I am currently planning adding the Virtualbox and LXC Vagrant images to > this build process. > The idea so far is to setup a build box mimicking the petterson setup, > and then send patches to pettersson-live.git to add the new cloud builders.

I must do the same for bootstrap-vz. We can get into a point where we'll be able to build any image that does not depends on specific provider resources (like the EC2 one).
