RPMs) installed + changes made to those RPMs + files +added. + +http://projects.morsi.org/wiki/Snap + +This results in a compact description of the guest. He even managed +to do a kind of migration of guests by simply recreating the guest +from the description on the target machine. + +It would be ideal to integrate this and/or use inspection to do this.
