Thanks for all the responses. I found that during the disk clean up, the ephemeral disk associated to the instance has been deleted. Can I know how to recover, associate and boot the VM once again?

Regards,

sounds like it maybe corrupted. I would try to download a test image from this location:
http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ch_obtaining_images.html

if you want to use some tools to build your images I would look at
http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ch_creating_images_automatically.html

Probably you need to create qcow2 image out of iso image and then use that qcow2 to create VMs from Openstack.
Follow the instructions similar to this:
http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/content/ubuntu-image.html

Hallo all,

Can I seek help for the problem described below?

I have a VM running Ubuntu 12.04 in my OpenStack cloud and when it boots, I get an error message that says "Error: invalid magic number, error: You need to load the kernel first. Press any key to continue".

Can I know how to make the VM boot?

Thanks,
Krishnaprasad
