Thanks Richard.
I am not able to perform a mount on the machine that I’ll be building this image on.
Is there a way for me to copy the files into the image without doing a mount - as the
perl script appears to do at this point:
$g->mount ("/dev/sda1", "/");
That's a mount in the libguestfs library namespace. It doesn't
require any special permissions on the machine running the script.
