<br/>
Can I ask once more, in this context, perhaps directed more to the people who have very kindly contributed images so far, for suggestions on what to read.<br/>
<br/>
Thanks again.<br/>

Might be something you and Julia Kreger could collaborate on?<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
Have a look here:<br>
<a href="http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ch_creating_images_manually.html" target="_blank">http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ch_creating_images_manually.html</a><br>
<br>
Also, I am creating some documentation (still not finished) and I have<br>
just written a small manual about howto create images for Ironic (but<br>
the process is quite similar):<br>

<br>
Does anyone have a link to best-practice image creation for<br>
openstack glance?<br>
<br>
Eg how to take a windows/linux install and turn it into a usable<br>
generic image to create instances from.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
