is the action being performed, indicating that a system image is being built.--description=${path-to-directory}
is an option that specifies the path to a directory containing the XML description files for the system image. The${path-to-directory}
should be replaced with the actual directory path.--target-dir=${path-to-directory}
is an option that sets the target directory where the generated system image will be stored. The${path-to-directory}
