</h2></div></div></div>
<p>
These classes add support for creating images in several formats.
First, the root filesystem is created from packages using
one of the <code class="filename">rootfs_*.bbclass</code>
files (depending on the package format used) and then the image is created.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-IMAGE_FSTYPES" title="IMAGE_FSTYPES">IMAGE_FSTYPES</a></code>
variable controls the types of images to generate.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-IMAGE_INSTALL" title="IMAGE_INSTALL">IMAGE_INSTALL</a></code>
variable controls the list of packages to install into the image.
