Generate the install image from subiquity's root directory:

Run the installer

    # generate target device
    qemu-img create -f raw target.img 10G

    # run installer
    sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -enable-kvm \
         -hda installer.img -hdb target.img \
         -serial telnet:127.0.0.1:2445,server,nowait \
         -monitor stdio

    # login and shutdown, ubuntu/passw0rd

    sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -enable-kvm \
         -hda test.img \
         -serial telnet:127.0.0.1:2445,server,nowait
