for developing pre-packaged virtual machines for Oracle
VM. Now, end-users and ISVs have the option to develop
their Oracle VM Templates by using these JeOS-based
scripts directly or via the graphical Oracle VM Template
Builder. Oracle VM Template Builder uses "JeOS"
to facilitate building an operating system instance
with only the absolute minimum packages needed for an
Oracle VM Template, helping to reduce the disk footprint
by up to 2GB or more per guest virtual machine, and
to improve security and reliability. Oracle VM Template
