Additionally, if you build your own AI/LiveCD images,
the following instructions must be followed:

If you build AI/LiveCD images using DC, it should be
noted that the build 136 version of distro-const requires
updating existing manifests to match the build 136 templates.

The DC AI x86 and SPARC manifest templates can be
found at /usr/share/distro_const/auto_install/ai_x86_image.xml
and /usr/share/distro_const/auto_install/ai_sparc_image.xml
respectively.

The LiveCD manifest template can be found at
/usr/share/distro_const/slim_cd/slim_cd_x86.xml
