Hi, I think this only way is to edit the code like so: - go to the line 66 of /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nova/virt/disk/api.py - and change to 'default=mkfs.ext4 -L %(fs_label)s -F %(target)s', Make sure to purge your /var/lib/nova/instances/_base It worked for me :) Let me know if it's ok :) Cheers!
