At present when we build an image, everything gets under one partition.
For my use case I need two images (denoting different partitions)
     1. rootfs image (mount point: '/', mounted as ro)
     2. data partition image (mount point: say '/data' mounted as rw)

While generating the image, I construct the /etc/fstab file manually by
representing filesystems by their uuids (generated using uuidgen). So,
to set this uuid in generated image I try to override the
image_types.bbclass and using tune2fs I set the uuid for the generated
images.

Is there any other better way of doing this?

Regards
Joshua
