For those who are afraid to use a public image because they don't know where
the image has been...
I'm sure I did several things in a very silly, unreasonable way. That's
fine. I was using a fed13 image I made that used the Ubuntu AKI before;
spent part of the last couple days getting this working. Follow the simple
instructions and you too can have an ebs-backed, pv-grub'd instance built
how you want it (just look for the yum --installroot=/mnt/chroot lines, add
what you want).
I'm absolutely positive that others have much, much more mature setup tools
avail for doing the same thing, but someone might find this useful anyway.
And a hat tip to Justin for pointing me to his AMI to peek at, which tipped
me off to the xvda device. I'll be adding a couple other updates to the git
repo, but realistically...it's just for creating an ami, and once that ami
is created one should just use that ami over and over until you need a new
ami. So the tool doesn't need to be /too/ sexy, just functional.

Thanks to everyone for coming today. See you next week!

Totally spaced the meeting today, I need to setup a reminder or something.
I reviewed the dependency list a couple of nights ago and the only thing
which looked to be missing was Redis. I haven't starting going through the
code, so there might be others.
In regards to Redis I've submitted a Review Request available via
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619237
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619237>I haven't done anything
on a Nova spec yet, but I'll probably mess around with it either tonight or
this weekend. I've created a stub (
http://github.com/silas/rpms/tree/master/openstack-nova/) in my GitHub
repository so people are welcome to check that to see if I've made any
progress.
If anyone else has already started let me know.

Hi all,
This is just FYI for folks who plan to try eucalyptus 1.6.2 or the current
development tree on fedora 12 or fedora 13. Eucalyptus will not be able to
work as expected due to a regression in kernel patch for which is yet to hit
fedora 12 / 13 mainline.
For more information one can refer to the following bug description :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eucalyptus/+bug/588861
The patch has hit kernel 2.6.35 but its only available in F14 and rawhide as
of now.
Thanks
Deependra
Thanks to all for coming today - and extra thanks to the folks from
the OpenStack community for dropping by.
Cheers,
-Robyn
