Bug Description
The only way to save the log from a run of diskimage-builder is to redirect or pipe the output to a file. When using these methods, you lose the buffered output on the command line from any programs executed during the image create. The big culprit here is yum specifically with it's download and installation status buffered output. Without seeing this output, it's often hard to tell if you've ended up pointed at a very slow mirror (or one that throttles aggressively). Slow mirrors can result in very slow image builds with not a lot of feedback of what's going on.
Ideally, diskimage-builder needs a way to write to a log file and preserve buffered output on the terminal as well.
