The size of the ISO matters, since we have to create the images for
several CDs, in 700mb maximum. To achieve this you have to adjust or
change the output of the packages for the files containing the build
orders. For example, the packages generated from 00-core.order would be
installed to /var/cache/qi/packages/cd1/ with the rest continuing to
wrap their output for the next CD number. So from stage 2 you can create the images for the CDs. It also gives the possibility of doing what you
suggested before, once the packages are generated, they will be
available in the packages/ directory, when chrooting in, Qi can be used
to install directly, for example. the core from
var/cache/qi/packages/cd1.

Apart from this, my proposal is to create a rootfs, which you unpack
directly, which is more direct and faster than having to install
packages one by one via Qi.


What do you think the rootfs must contain?

The rootfs can contain whatever the final system produces, usually everything (packed in a tar.gz).
