You definitely do not want 'instance'. Instance is the thing running inside the cloud. (Ie, this would help you get package selection for a "image" to run in a VM inside the cloud). > system that would boot, but fail to mount its root file system.

While I would not expect you to fail where you did, the UEC Images will not function correctly in any mode without a metadata service (ie, STATIC or SYSTEM) (http://open.eucalyptus.com/wiki/EucalyptusNetworking_v1.5.2) The images are built to obtain information about themselves from the metadata service, and will not function if it is not present. Another thing to note, is that images for ec2/Eucalyptus will expect to find a root filesystem at /dev/sda1 , not at /dev/sda. If you just boot an image in kvm with '-hda disk.img' you will quite likely fail with "can't find root" as the /etc/fstab will be expecting /dev/sda1 and you will have presented a partition image as a disk. Eucalyptus takes the partition image and turns it into a "full disk" with a partition table. I believe the problems you're running into (at this point at least) are more with eucalyptus configuration than with the images themselves. -- Official UEC image fails to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to eucalyptus in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
