Joshua,

Do you have some basic instructions on how to push this into an image and configure it? Any information about what you have here would be great!

Subject: Re: [Openstack] centos 6 images

U might want to check out, 

https://github.com/yahoo/Openstack-Condense 

Its a stripped down/cleaned up/... version of cloud-init that I know works on RHEL6. 

I tried to improve the following: 



    1. Code cleanliness (constants being uppercase, paths using os.path.join and so-on) 
    2. Stripping out some of the odd handlers (byobu, right-scale and such) 
    3. Improving logging by a lot (so that u can debug this thing) 
    4. Making what handlers I left work on RH and ubuntu... 

Might be useful if u want to try it. 

I know just from doing the above work that the cloud-init for ubuntu, requires some work to get it to work on RH, but not tons, eventually I hope that I can merge this back, but for now its forked so that I could focus on getting it working and cleaned up, rather than pushing code through some review process via launchpad and such (ie the slow as molasses approach).

I will give these a shot later today and reply with feedback. 

Thanks for looking into this!

Currently I have ssh keys getting imported but having some problems getting the disk to dynamically resize to the flavor template as well as the hostname set in horizon to be pushed into the image. Does anyone have any howtos or suggestions on how to get this done? Is there cloud-init for centos just like ubuntu? I would also be interested in how to do this with debian as well.
