 # Specific ubuntu-image chroot configuration goes here.
+# Currently the ubuntu-image IMAGEFORMAT is equivalent to building an image
+# for a physical device, not a cloud instance. For such images we want some
+# special cloud-init configuration that should not be happening for cloud
+# cases. This check should be changed to a per-MODEL/per-SUBARCH check once
+# we support building cloud images via ubuntu-image.

     # If the cloud does not provide a meta-data service this should be run
     # This will setup a nocloud datasource on the boot partition.
