Due to the nature of the design, it would be relatively easy for a user to

Custom IPA Images
=================
Bifrost supports the ability for a user to build a custom IPA ramdisk
utilizing the diskimage-builder element "ironic-agent". In order to utilize
this feature, the download_ipa setting must be set to "false" and the
create_ipa_image must be set to "true". By default, the playbook will build
a Debian based IPA image, if a pre-existing IPA image is not present on disk.
If you wish to include an extra element into the IPA disk image, such as a
custom hardware manager, you can pass the variable "ipa_extra_dib_elements"
as a space separated list of elements. This defaults to an emtpy string.
