I did the patch, but same result... :-(

doesn't matter), and snapshot or copy that when you need a new image and
make the few changes you need to.

It's an idea for some VMs, but we also want to build a lot of
'disposable' VMs completly 'new' with complete diffrent build scripts
and parameters...

> Interesting... ( /tmp [EXT4] -> [EXT3] )

regressions with ext4 under certain workloads

I have in our network an "apt-mirror" server.
Another machine, but is own Gigabit connection...

I have my tmpfs on default. (not filled in)

you used to run vmbuilder, so I can try to reproduce the ext4 booting

## BuidVmRaw.sh ##

lvcreate -L 10G -n "$VAR_HostName" vg-1;
vmbuilder kvm ubuntu \
--config="defaultVM.cfg" \
-o \
--hostname="$VAR_HostName" \
--raw="/dev/vg-1/$VAR_HostName"
--firstboot="$VAR_firstBoot" \
--firstlogin="$VAR_firstLogin" \
--ssh-user-key="/home/locadm/.ssh/authorized_keys" \
--verbose;

## defaultVM.cfg ##

[DEFAULT]
arch = amd64
cpus = 1
mem = 512
name = 'Local Administrator'
user = locadm
pass = default
timezone = Europe/Amsterdam
domain = company.lan

[ubuntu]
mirror = http://archive.ubuntu.company.lan/ubuntu
security-mirror = http://security.ubuntu.company.lan/ubuntu
suite = lucid
flavour = virtual
addpkg = acpid, cron, htop, nano, pciutils, wget

[kvm]
libvirt = qemu:///system
bridge = br0
virtio_net = true

## ##

I also noticed that the "--firstboot" and the "--firstlogin" don't work,
but first the big EXT4-fs error...

Please give us the full command line and any configuration files which
you used to run vmbuilder, so I can try to reproduce the ext4 booting
error.

Actually I'm wondering whether this is a duplicate of bug 578199.  Would
you mind testing by doing:

   cd /tmp
   wget 
https://code.launchpad.net/~brightbox/vmbuilder/exclude-first-cylinder/+merge/42530/+preview-diff/+files/preview.diff
   cd /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
   patch -p0 < /tmp/preview.diff

then re-building your VM?
