We can have a generic image as cartridge. For such an image, skip the #14
of the guide.
Advantage:

You do not need to maintain separate images for different cartridges.

Disadvantage:

It will take 10-15 minutes to start up the cartridge instance at the run
time. Because it has to install all the software required at the run time.

Thanks.
