I can add open-vm-tools (seems like buildroot supports it), but this nearly doubles the size of the disk requirements.. If we also look into xs-tools and it's python requirements (?) then it will probably get even less "tiny". Not to mention hyperv. So I guess the question is, where do we draw the line between size and functionality. I for one am happy with having paravirt drivers in the kernel, but leave out the "tools", pretty much as it is now.

Hi,
I've built it, it's called Macchinina ("little machine" or "toy car" in
Italian) and you can get it from here:
https://github.com/NuxRo/macchinina
Can you guys try this out and let me know how it works? Especially the vhd file
which I have not tested at all (the img/raw and qcow2 work ok on KVM +
{virtio,SATA,IDE} ).
This is not the final incarnation so don't advertise it yet, Cloudstack
specific scripts are yet to be added, but that should be easy and most of the
stuff is there. Login: root / password
Macchinina is basically linux kernel (no initrd, most virt drivers are
built-in, let me know if I forgot any) + busybox + buildroot. All in all less
than ~50 MB.
There's SSH baked in, BASH and Python as well as many tools (tcpdump, netcat
etc) to aid testing and so on. All this work is easy to duplicate, the config
files are all on github and I'll also try to wrap up a simple script that build
everything so everybody can build their own if they need.
Updates will follow.

What is the smallest size we can obtain if we were to create a proper distro based VM with minimum tools and services (only ssh, bunch of cloudstack reset password/hostname/ssh-key scripts and guest vm drivers)? Since the aim of such template is just to use it for testing and in DevCloud, keeping the template and root disk size small is necessary [1].

So we either go for super slim (with virtio/xen/vmw/hyperv drivers) but without the extra tools, or we go with a proper distro with them - but it won't be small. :-) Which one do you want? > Create a new reusable tinylinux appliance for all hypervisors > - > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-8038 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8038 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) >Reporter: Rohit Yadav >Assignee: Rohit Yadav > Fix For: Future, 4.6.0 > > > Using our systemvm build infra/scripts, create a tiny linux appliance (10-20 > MB in size) that has the reset password/ssh-public-key scripts for testing > purposes.

I've recently started using your templates from openvm.eu and they are great, one issue I faced in ubuntu template was that the apt source.list files used repo url that starts with ZoneName.clouds.archive which is not available for me perhaps the templates assume a local archive mirror? Yes, tinycore or tinylinux would be nice. My main aim is to keep the appliance size small since they are only for CloudStack testing purposes and have the password/public key setup scripts installed on them along with hypervisor specific tools (virtio, xstools, vmware tools) as applicable. > Create a new reusable tinylinux appliance for all hypervisors > - > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-8038 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8038 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) >Reporter: Rohit Yadav >Assignee: Rohit Yadav > Fix For: Future, 4.6.0 > > > Using our systemvm build infra/scripts, create a tiny linux appliance (10-20 > MB in size) that has the reset password/ssh-public-key scripts for testing > purposes.
