Public bug reported:

CAVEAT: This is from code inspection only.

Change I931421ea moved the following snippet of code:

        if CONF.libvirt.virt_type == 'uml':
            libvirt_utils.chown(image('disk').path, 'root')

from the bottom of _create_image to the top. The problem is, the new
location is before the creation of the root disk. This means that on
initial creation we will run libvirt_utils.chown on a path which hasn't
been created yet, which will cause an exception.
