"""Makes changes to mounted Chromium OS image to allow it to run with VMs

This script changes two files within the Chromium OS image to let the image
work with VMs, particularly QEMU

Currently this script does the following,
1.) Modify the post install script to remove EFI fixup section; the VM's we
support don't have EFI support anyway and this section of the script needs
access to the actual device drives

2.) For QEMU/KVM, we change the xorg.conf to remove mouse support and instead
change it to complete tablet support. This is done to provide better mouse
response in the VM since tablets work of absolute coordinates while the mouse
works of relative. In a screen that doesn't support a mouse grab (e.g., VNC),
relative coordinates can cause the mouse to be flaky
