Hi, 
looks like you only have the disc image - you can use that doc for creating the kernel and initrd (ramdisk) : 
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/creating-custom-images.html#d6e6784
After you have the three, upload to your image repository both kernel and ramdisk, and provide their id to the image with the following flags "kernel_id" and "ramdisk_id"
