Hi
I am past the quota issue, i increased the quota for the project.

Where should i get the kernel and ramdisk for tinycore bootstrap?
And how do i download the baremetal agent to the baremetal node?

Now when i do nova boot i see the following issue:



All nova services are up and working.

Thanks
Ravi
