As far as I'm aware the "appliancey" way to reuse disk images is to login in and fix all this once you fire the machines up. This is something you could possibly

So.. each boot would need to do this, since in theory the mac address could change between launches.

I don't think so. It should persist with the VM (if you keep the libvirt config with it)...


The approach we took with Virt-Factory is to not use disk images, but start the install fresh every time, and use config management to push
changes down.

In a controlled environment, or once koan takes over the world, I would agree. However... this will not work in all cases (e.g. demo applliances, or operating systems with no public tree)

No argument there. In demo-land, you don't care about MAC collision, and randomization should be sufficient. I think.

No public tree?  You can still distribute the install server.
