Colleagues,

Centos bootstrap image (that we used to build together with the ISO) code
has been removed from fuel-main. Now the only available option is the
Ubuntu based bootstrap image that is built on the master node in run time.
>From this moment we are ready to get rid of building Fuel packages at the
ISO build time and instead download them from Fuel Packaging CI.
