--flat_interface (for flatdhcp mode)
Doesn't work.

Either the docs is wrong or the software.
When I set "--flat_injected option", nova fails to work.

root@nova-server1:~# nova-manage
Usage: nova-manage [options]

nova-manage: error: --flat_injected option does not take a value

See:
Docs: (compute) FlatDHCP disallows IP injection
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/941978

Proposed fix:
Remove "--flat_injected=False" altogether from FlatDHCP docs.
Or it should work without options ?
According to my understanding, only Flat mode has IP injection, while
FlatDHCP does not.

Is this correct ?

Problem is:

Networking described in Chapter: "Configuring Multiple Compute Nodes",
which comes *after* Chapter: "Setting Up OpenStack Compute Environment
on the Compute Node"

So it fails.

Moreover:
"Configuring Multiple Compute Nodes" needs
an example of what this looks like with real values entered.
