Open Stack

Yes I am following the example in

https://github.com/openstack/octavia/tree/master/diskimage-create#using-distribution-packages-for-amphora-agent

I did export it. However, I think the problem was that I was invoking the
script with

  bash diskimage-create.sh ....

Instead of directly invoking it using

  ./diskimage-create.sh ...

Not sure if it made the difference.

I also removed /root/.cache/image-create and re-ran everything.

I can now see the files I added to the image when I explore it using
guestfish.

Thank you for your help.
