These 2 patches allow the building of a new image for x86 and x64.
The "raw" image is a disk image, with a valid partition table and
MBR, that can directly written to a disk and will boot, or the file
is bootable in QEMU. Also cloud providers who use KVM (like Google)
should accept this as their VM image format.
