Hi, all
I'm confused about the progress of this function. Actually in its steps:
1) Create a sparse COW
2) Loopback mount the image and the COW
3) Create a device-mapper snapshot of the image
using the COW
4) Resize the filesystem to the minimal size
5) Determine the amount of space used in the COW
6) Restroy the device-mapper snapshot
7) Truncate the COW, removing unused space
8) Create a squashfs of the COW
why not resize2fs -M osmin.img directly?
In document http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LiveOS_image,
it said"osmin.img is a minimized OS image which is used to aid traditional
installation from a LiveOS image source to a hard disk.", but how does this
lvm snapshot help with installation to disk?
Is "os.fturncate this file(snapshot file *osmin*)" dangerously?
Thanks
