Open Stack

I  recently deployed a couple of test servers for Nova; I'm using Diablo v3
(http://wiki.openstack.org/NovaInstall/RHEL6Notes-Diablo-3) on RHEL v6; here
are my current issues:

On the Cloud Controller node I can launch instances and I'm able to ping
them but they don't come up cleanly because they're unable to connect to the
169.254.169.254 host via HTTP for metadata

cloud-setup: checking
http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id
wget: can't connect to remote host (169.254.169.254): Connection timed out
cloud-setup: failed 1/30: up 1.38. request failed

I've tried various IPTables settings but still no go.

On the compute only node (1st one of hopefully many); I have larger issues:

I haven't figured out how to successfully change the bridge interface for
br100; my network uses eth0 for the monitoring/admin NW and I can't change
that. I was able to change it OK for the cloud controller via the settings
for the network.
Also, when instances try to run on the compute node I receive the errors
below; also I see that the kernel files out in the instances sub-directories
are 0 byte files:

Any help would be greatly appreciated; next step is digging into the source
but I want to make sure I'm setting the environment up correctly 1st.
