+# vnftest comment: this is a modified copy of
+# yardstick/tools/README
+
+This directory contains various utilities needed in the vnftest environment.
+
+vnftest-img-modify is a generic script (but ubuntu cloud image specific) that
+takes a another script as an argument. This second script does the actual
+modifications of the image. sudo is required since the base image is mounted
+using qemu's network block device support.
+
+Usage example:
+
+$ sudo vnftest-img-modify $HOME/vnftest/tools/ubuntu-server-cloudimg-modify.sh
