[Openstack] Trouble deploying Suse SLES 11 and 12 on openstack and VMware

Hi George,

If I assign the network address I do have access.

But I think I have found the issue.

The cloud-init we were using did not have SLES SUSE scripts to add the 
network config files.

I have found a package that I believe will work for SLES 11 and packaged 
it on my OBS account. I will test and make sure it works.

What amazes me is that SUSE have not done this already and added it to 
the repositories.

I can't be the ONLY person who wants to use SLES on an openstack cluster.

Thanks for the help.

Lance
