Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] host/start-vm: support multiple block devices
Date: Sun,  9 Oct 2022 11:40:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221009114036.463071-2-hi@alyssa.is> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221009114036.463071-1-hi@alyssa.is>

This is the first step to being able to do things like having a static
base image for an application VM, and another image containing the
application to run.

When we actually use multiple images we'll need to change how we boot
so we know the kernel is booting from the right image — probably by
PARTUUID or PARTLABEL — because we can't guarantee how the kernel
orders disks inside the VM.
