Hi Dennis,

that is just not true, but I must admit, configuration of OpenStack is a 
more complex task.

OpenStack consists of a stack of applications providing several partly 
overlapping services. So it might be the case, you tested one 
application, but another part has been configured to provide a service.

were you testing F18 or any RHEL build?

How do you know, cinder is not working or bridges don't come up?

Instead of following the instructions given for EPEL, which don't really 
apply in depth for f18, you should take a look at
