Ah, so you already have a VM image.

There's indeed a way to convert a VM appliance into a bootable/installable ISO. quemu-img does exactly that.

I have never used it though, but I bet Google has several answers on the topic. Smilie

LIBGUESTFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     LIBGUESTFS(8)

NAME

       update-guestfs-appliance - update the supermin appliance used by libguestfs

SYNOPSIS

       update-guestfs-appliance

DESCRIPTION

       update-guestfs-appliance  creates or updates the supermin appliance for use with libguestfs. It uses febootstrap for this, therefore access
       to the package repository is needed.

       A supermin appliance contains only lists of files and directories. The contents of the referenced files are  only  copied  into	an  ad-hoc
       filesystem  whenever  libguestfs  starts a virtual machine. Therefore, calling update-guestfs-appliance is only needed after libguestfs has
       been installed or when the filesystem layouts or dependencies of needed packages on the host system have been changed.

FILES

       /usr/lib/guestfs/make.sh (the script that does the actual work),
       /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/hostfiles
       /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/base.img

SEE ALSO

       guestfish(1), guestmount(1), febootstrap(8), febootstrap-supermin-helper(8).
