[OE-core] [Build App RFC 0/5] Review Request for Build Appliance

[Saul Wold]

Richard,

This is an updated set of changes for the Build Appliance to use
directdisk.  I am submitting this even as I am finding out that
there is an issue with genext2fs building Large FS Size (5GB and
greater).

The other option is to add a newer version of dosfstools, which is
not fully vetted yet, but may allow us to use bootimg instead of 
driectdisk.

Please review and comment the builder, image-vmdk and boot-directdisk
patches ready to go, the VMDK, update for directdisk is questionable
until we can solve the large image issues.

Sau!
