DESCRIPTION

         xen-update-image is a simple script which allows you to update
        a Xen image of Debian which has been created with xen-create-image.

         It does this by mounting the image inside a temporary directory
        then running:

             apt-get update

             apt-get upgrade

         NOTE If the image is already running within Xen this will cause
        corruption otherwise it will allow you to update your image without
        booting it.

EXAMPLES

         The following assumes there are two images which are not currently
        running.  The images are called 'test.my.flat', and 'x11.my.flat'.

         Updating both images can be accomplished by executing:

            xen-update-images --dir=/home/xen test.my.flat x11.my.flat
