Sharif,

Thank you very much for cooperation on IRC yesterday.
We run into an issue also.
You need to upgrade to last packages (yum update) to fix that.

Or simply fix your /etc/nova/nova.conf according to our blog post:

Our technical blog is also mirrored on http://planet.openstack.org

You probably can run into an issue using Ubuntu-based image here.
Especially if you need to inject networking settings into an instance.

Right now code working this way:
RHEL-based OpenStack (Grid Dynamics build) is trying to inject to /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 using libguestfs and Ubuntu-based OpenStack is trying to inject to /etc/network/interfaces using qemu-nbd.

That basically means you need RHEL-based OpenStack Nova to run RHEL-based images (RHEL, CentOS, Fedora) and Ubuntu-based OpenStack Nova to run Ubuntu- and Debian-based images.

We plan to implement instance's OS at the runtime utilizing libguestfs features and inject configs to proper place.
