Ya, not sure how to do multi-interface yet. I'd love if the cloud-init
static ip support would work with it. (hash with macs being the key and
a list of IPs being the value for each interface). Then dhcp can go
away (I tend to much prefer config-drive).
The disk-image-builder support is on my todo list already :D
I just updated the cloud-init ebuild with a better cloud.cfg, could
probably use more love, but it works.
I am working on getting gentoo as a first class citizen in
openstack-ansible as well, which depends on the disk-image-builder work.
So much work still to do :D
