 To create a tarball which is the most flexible storage format and can be used for a variety of future installation uses:
 {{{#!bash
-sudo tar --numeric-owner -cvJf bionic-newport.tar.xz -C rootfs/ .
-}}}
- * the '--numeric-owner' is required to store user/group as a number instead of a name
+sudo tar --keep-directory-symlink -cvJf bionic-newport.tar.xz -C rootfs/ .
+}}}
+ * '--numeric-owner' is required to store user/group as a number instead of a name, your specific use case may require this switch. 
  * the '-C rootfs/' is required to eliminate the rootfs directory prefix
  * the sudo is needed to be able to read the root owned files
+ * '--keep-directory-symlink' will preserve symbolic links
