Public bug reported:

When using vmware driver to attach a volume during VM spawn as below
using --block-device.

The VM will show 'Active' in openstack, but the actuall the VM couldn't
be loaded. Showing 'Operating System Not Found'.

nova boot --flavor 7 --image trend-thin --block-device source=volume,id
=0fa2137c-ef9f-413c-bf6b-1a8b4fcf2e35,dest=volume,shutdown=preserve
myInstanceWithVolume --nic net-id=e7ef5ccb-1718-42b6-a99c-37d5a509c339

Note: the volume is not bootable volume. Just want to deployment the VM
from backend image and then attach the volume to the VM.
