Hi,
I am getting the following error when running

$ nova boot myserver --flavor 2 --key_name mykey --image

The image was obtained from following the Getting Started with OpenStack on
Fedora 17 tutorial (
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_on_Fedora_17).
So, I guess I am not the only one using it.

This is running on Nova Essex on Fedora 16.
After a while I get:

$ nova list

+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+------------------+

And so the log:

(ext4)\n")


Note that I get the same error with other images, so it's not specific to
f16-jeos. I am confused by this error. If the nova-rootwrap had to specify
a filesystem type for the mount to succeed that would be a longtime known
bug and so fixed bug right? The default filesystem types seem to be
configured properly on the system...

$ cat /etc/filesystems
ext4
ext3
ext2
nodev proc
nodev devpts
iso9660
vfat
hfs
hfsplus


Any help to sort that problem out would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Patrick
