Scott, If you need someone to test your changes, I would be happy to do it. Please just give me some basic instructions on how to put it in place and I will get it working.
As for your request for comments/features, personally I would like to see the following parts done initially: - hostname set to instance name - disk space resize to flavor size - ssh-key pull - report a random password for root user (or default user) if this is possible Thanks for looking at this. jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Moser" <smo...@ubuntu.com> To: "Pádraig Brady" <p...@draigbrady.com> Cc: "Fedora Cloud SIG" <cl...@lists.fedoraproject.org>, "Andy Grimm" <agr...@gmail.com>, "openstack" <openstack@lists.launchpad.net> Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 12:51:42 PM Subject: Re: [Openstack] centos 6 images On Tue, 22 May 2012, Pádraig Brady wrote: > On 05/22/2012 03:39 PM, Andy Grimm wrote: > > On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 9:38 AM, Pádraig Brady <p...@draigbrady.com> wrote: > >> On 05/22/2012 04:07 AM, Jason Ford wrote: > >>> I am trying to put together an image for centos 6 that works like > >>> cloud-init on ubuntu does.

I don't think it's a huge It would help if you'd bring that up with upstream :) I'm interested in cloud-init working in the most places it can. I'll try to pull in the sysvinit scripts that Pádraig added and grab other changes that are there. > > amount of work to make it functional, but it hasn't been high on > > anyone's list.

If anyone has features / issues they'd like addressed in cloud-init, please feel free to ping me (smoser). I'll most likely ask you to open a bug at http://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init , and may even invite you to submit a patch. One way or another, though, I'm interested in making cloud-init better, so comments/concerns/participation is welcome and encouraged. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
