from the install root, not from the build host's filesystem.

Lorax now supports creation of product.img and updates.img as part of the build
process. This is implemented using the installimg command which will take the
contents of a directory and create a compressed archive from it. The x86, ppc,
ppc64le and aarch64 templates all look for /usr/share/lorax/product/ and
/usr/share/lorax/updates/ directories while creating the final install tree. If
there are files in those directories lorax will create images/product.img
and/or images/updates.img
process. This is implemented using the installimg template command which will
take the contents of a directory and create a compressed archive from it. The
directory must be created by one of the packages installed by
runtime-install.tmpl or by passing ``--installpkgs <pkgname>`` to lorax at
runtime. The x86, ppc, ppc64le and aarch64 templates all look for
/usr/share/lorax/product/ and /usr/share/lorax/updates/ directories in the
install chroot while creating the final install tree. If there are files in
those directories lorax will create images/product.img and/or
images/updates.img
These archives are just like an anaconda updates image -- they are copied over
the top of the filesystem at boot time so that you can drop in files to add to
