Hi, I and my coworkers built a tool called "bsd-cloudinit" to help create FreeBSD cloud images. It should be quite useful for running FreeBSD instances on OpenStack. bsd-cloudinit [1] is equivalent to cloud-init for FreeBSD, it reads environment variables (metadata) and sets up the instance accordingly on first boot. Things like injecting SSH public keys, setting hostname, enlarging root partition are all handled by bsd-cloudinit. bsd-cloudinit-installer [2] is a shell script that installs bsd-cloudinit and transforms VM into instance template.
