But the current stuff uses live-build - my system is derived from the scripts that builds your cloud images. And the hook in 030-create-user.chroot disable user creation for Quantal. if dist_ge "${codename}" quantal; then echo "User creation on 12.10 is handled by cloud-init." exit 0 fi Netdev is created in a 025 default group hook. echo "Adding admin group..." addgroup --system --quiet admin echo "Adding netdev group..." addgroup --system --quiet netdev Why have the hooks creating the default groups? Shouldn't they be in the standard server installation packages so that a debootstrapped Ubuntu system has the expected /etc/group layout? -- Neil Wilson -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to cloud-init in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1054035 Title: Adding default user fails due to lack of 'netdev' group To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1054035/+subscriptions -- 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
