add pentoo vm images for download

[GoogleCodeExporter]

please provide vm images for download,
i think it's a good idea if this is technically possible; to some extent this 
increases functionality of the project as a feature

Thanks for re-posting my idea from irc channel ;-)

yeah, I've suggested it in Pentoo dev list back in 24/08/2011
there are even scripts for that http://soc.dev.gentoo.org/~hexxeh/
however, it was no updates since then.

forgot to say, that the easiest way is to do it manually for now. Something 
like this:

You come up with a script that automatically makes VM's and I'll happily run it 
and distribute the results.  Frankly, I have no use for people who can't figure 
out how to make a vm boot from an iso or work the installer.

https://github.com/d11wtq/gentoo-packer
https://www.packer.io/ eaven more automated, 

https://github.com/necrose99/lxc/blob/master/templates/lxc-pentoo.in 
it needs testing (or triv fixes) blshkv /ZC have R/W to repo if needed. 

IE Docker one can make instances of same lxc container IE a "github" of a 
container can "fork" it etc.(each action forks it slightly ie rm-r /var oops 
just revert :-) ) ..  so if your test case goes to shite you can revert... 
since i like testing packages nice youtube zzz demo a bit long-ish..... 

anyhow enjoy.the lxc template.....
