I am attaching a build script that uses a partitions file to demonstrate the issue. When you run this script, the traceback that I listed doesn't occur (not sure why). However, the built machine does still complain about /dev/sda2, and you can verify that it does not have swap. ** Attachment

It does seem to work without the -P 1 option. Unfortunately, the rest of the system I've built around this doesn't work if I start the server that way, but perhaps I can work around. So perhaps the partition option is what is broken for Lucid? -- qemu-kvm-0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu2: qemu-nbd: error

Public bug reported: If you interrupt the operation of python-vm-builder with the KeyboardInterrupt, it won't clean up after itself. The version of vmbuilder that comes with Karmic I believe might do this (haven't checked, but it does seem to go through a cleanup step). This would be friendly
