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
