I used Fedora Test Day wiki as an outline with success in the past.
It is quite rudimentary, but if you follow the steps exactly, the
result is a somewhat useable Nova, which can be gradually enhanced
(for example, I moved mine from a file image volume group to an
actual LVM volume group).

Probably not the best way to do it, but just as a suggestion.
