.. warning::
One caveat of using this method of container creation is that
``/etc/hosts`` is left unmodified. This could cause confusion for some
distros if salt-minion is later installed on the container, as the
functions that determine the hostname take ``/etc/hosts`` into account.
Additionally, when creating an rootfs image, be sure to remove
``/etc/salt/minion_id`` and make sure that ``id`` is not defined in
``/etc/salt/minion``, as this will cause similar issues.
