Hi Alexey -
Yes, I viscerally understand this need for the project. Possibly
viscerally is a made-up word but my gut screams for this type of doc.
:) With the need in mind, this guide is a starter guide for
installing, configuring, and validating installations of each project
step-by-step (however yes it is currently Ubuntu-only).

http://docs.openstack.org/diablo/openstack-compute/install/content/

Specifically this section discusses user and role creation and the
next section describes how to obtain tokens for created users by
validating the install:
http://docs.openstack.org/diablo/openstack-compute/install/content/identity-configure-keystone.html

It does not yet contain the instructions for EC2 credentials with the
keystone client:
keystone ec2-credentials-create --tenant_id=$ADMIN_TENANT --user=$ADMIN_USER
keystone ec2-credentials-create --tenant_id=$DEMO_TENANT --user=$DEMO_USER

The guide will be updated when packages are made available for Essex.
The intent is not to have it remain Ubuntu only it's just that we need
packaging tested on more distros prior to publishing step-by-step
instructions that are tested.

I would appreciate having your notes and your submission of doc
updates as you go through it, and please do note differences for
Debian - preferably as doc bugs rather than only mailing list posts.
(I won't stop you from communicating here, that's not my intent, just
that we need capturing and tracking and patching).
Thanks,
Anne
