I have a need for the growroot feature that comes with cloud-utils and cloud-initramfs-tools. I've noticed that these packages don't exist in
Fedora/EPEL and was wondering if there are any specific reasons for
that?

The cloud-init package in F18 includes this. I'm not sure about EPEL.

I'm not seeing it in F18's cloud-init
(cloud-init-0.7.1-2.fc18.noarch). Maybe I didn't make myself clear
enough and we're talking about different things. What I'm looking for
is the initramfs script that enlarges the root partition to the
maximum possible size during first boot so that cloud-init can later
grow the root filesystem.

Juerg,

I don't believe cloud-init supports this. How I work around it is run fdisk from initrd and expand the partition and fs.
