            From the bit I've used it this is really the extent of it. There is some additional nuances but if you get these commands down LVM is much easier.

                I'm on XenServer 7.. I think I need to use a xe vdi-create command to create the volume first.. then I can mount that as LVM through another xe command.

                  After you figure out partitioning, then LVM. One step at a time.

                    Partition first. And pvcreate requires you to specify the block device.

                        diskimage-fu, probably worth a black belt:

                        Part 1 (in a amd64 VM):

                        1. Download blank Raspbian image
                        2. Create a blank loop file
                        3. Mount both, original image and new image
                        4. Create a slightly modified similar partition layout, format partitions
                        5. Rsync everything to the new image
                        6. Create NFS export from the mounted target
                        7. Flash a modified version of the image (just the boot partition including the kernel and a few firmware drivers) to a SD card. Slightly modify the kernel command line to actually mount the root partition ("/") via NFS

                        Part 2 (on ARM based device)
                        8. Fire up your ARM based device with the SD card
                        9. Modify image (update packages, install software, purge stuff, modify configs)
                        10. Shutdown

                        Part 3 (within the VM)
                        11. Flush file buffers, un-export, unmount, un-loop & stop NFS server
                        12. Flash final image to SD card

                        Completely scripted.

                        My previous plan (using a chroot on an ARM based CPU) worked too, but it was very slow due to the old Banana Pro I had spare. The new version is even cooler because I can run the real environment (incl. the desktop) on real hardware without flashing a full distro to an SD card.

                                            I don't mind it actually, ML has slowed to where I can accomplish my work and keep up with the conversation
