Fabiano Fidêncio 9665563145 image_builder: Force mount_dir to be created in $TMPDIR
Immutable systems, as such Red Hat Core OS and Fedora Core OS, will not
allow mount_dir to be created in a location that's not read-write.

Let's ensure we use $TMPDIR (with /tmp as fallback) as base for mount_dir,
as it's a safe writable choice for any distro supported by kata.

Fixes: #437

Kata Containers image generation

A Kata Containers disk image is generated using the image_builder.sh script. This uses a rootfs directory created by the rootfs-builder/rootfs.sh script.

Creating a guest OS image

To create a guest OS image run:

$ sudo ./image_builder.sh path/to/rootfs

Where path/to/rootfs is the directory populated by rootfs.sh.

Note

: If you are building an image from an Alpine rootfs, see the important note here.

Further information

For more information about usage (including how to adjust the size of the image), run:

$ ./image_builder.sh -h
