15 I don't think there are formal docs to do this, but here's what I did:
16
17 Follow /README.maintainers to about line 107, or right before it
18 says "Now unchroot and tar up your new build image."
19
20 At that point, I actually chroot into the build image and run through
21 the steps to get me to stage 2 or 3 (from the Installation doc), then
22 unchroot and tar up the image.
