That will have built an Ubuntu image with the same arch as your host<br>
system. Is your VM host - the nova compute node / KVM the same arch?<br>
E.g. if you built an amd64 image, you need to boot it on an amd64 virt<br>
host.<br><br>
Failing that, if the last output is 'Booting from hard disk', that<br>
suggests that the boot block in the vm may be at fault : does grub<br>
show up? Could you attach the build log from the image creation?<br>
(stdout, stderr).<br><br>
