This is the builder/ project that used to live inside puppet-gluster.
This is an elegant method for making base images for vagrant-libvirt.
This Makefile builds vagrant base image ("boxes") for vagrant-libvirt.
A short article describing the process can be found here:

This was built for Puppet-Gluster+Vagrant [1], but it can be used anywhere.
Happy hacking,
