Hi,
<br>I am getting the following error when running

<br>The image was obtained from following the Getting Started with OpenStack 
on Fedora 17 tutorial 
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_on_Fedora_17">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_on_Fedora_17</a>). 
So, I guess I am not the only one using it.

<br>This is running on Nova Essex on Fedora 16.
<br>After a while I get:

<br>And so the log:

<br>
<br>Note that I get the same error with other images, so it's not specific 
to f16-jeos. I am confused by this error. If the nova-rootwrap had to 
specify a filesystem type for the mount to succeed that would be a 
longtime known bug and so fixed bug right? The default filesystem types seem to be 
configured properly on the system...

<br>Any help to sort that problem out would be greatly appreciated.
