Hello all,
It strikes me as odd that the Fedora 21 cloud images are hidden behind
the "Are you an OpenStack user?" link on
https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/download/. It seems as if libvirt
users would also like to use the qcow2 images (100% of my sample
audience -- consisting of me -- agrees with that statement).
Someone looking for qcow2 images for use outside of openstack may be
stymied by the current design.
The images expect cloud-init to set the root password, right? So
unless it's documented how to work around that, we shouldn't advertise
for anything but a cloud environment.
Cloud-init supports different data sources
(http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/datasources.html),
e.g. one can provide a special ISO. Cloud environment is really optional
here.
Right, but none of the common end user tools like boxes or
virt-manager/virt-install (or raw libvirt, or qemu) will do that for you. So
something would still need to be documented
