Ow. That's a lot more than I expected. :-\ It's precisely the fact that it's built into the image that makes cloud-init so useful. You only get one user-data file when you run an instance, so if we remove cloud-init from the image and make using it a multi-step bootstrapping process then there isn't much point in offering it at all. Maybe there's a way to make it more modular. > There should be a minimal version of it, whatever the packaging solution then > looks like... Right now it relies on a config file to list what plugins it's supposed to run since said list of plugins can differ by distro, but I bet one could make it try to compute the list automatically by looking at all of the plugins. Once it can do that, making it run with the additional plugins should actually be quite straightforward. _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
