I've written a small Fedora supermin appliance for the test day. It's just under 700K download, but will only work for users who already have Fedora 15, 16 or Rawhide installed on the host.
I suggested to Mark and Alan that we give them this. If it doesn't work, then they can download a full appliance image that Alan is building instead.
I have tested these images on stock Fedora 15 (32 bit), F16 (64 bit) and Rawhide (64 bit).
For Fedora 15, use this: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3421870
For Fedora 16, use this: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3421867
For Rawhide, use this: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3421803
You will need ~600 MB free space in /var/lib since that is where the real appliance gets built. Just install the RPM and run 'boot-a-fedora-appliance' (as root). Then read that script and the README file.
Upstream source: http://git.annexia.org/?p=a-fedora-appliance.git;a=summary
Those are Koji scratch builds, so I guess they will get deleted after a while. I will recreate them shortly before the test day itself.
The appliance uses a separate (external) kernel and initrd. We could change that. Not sure what is the best way for OpenStack though.

Hey Rich,
This is a pretty sweet idea now that I think about it - if you want an image, why not base it on your system and use all the files from there rather than downloading the whole lot again.
I'd still like to have a self-contained set of images so that e.g. we can use them for EPEL testing or maybe get upstream developers using them. But this is a pretty cool alternative.
Here's what I did to try them out:
$> wget 'http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=3421868&name=a-fedora-...'
$> sudo yum localinstall -y a-fedora-appliance-1.0-6.fc16.x86_64.rpm
$> glance add name=a-fedora-appliance-kernel < /var/lib/a-fedora-appliance/kernel Added new image with ID: 4 $> glance add name=a-fedora-appliance-initrd < /var/lib/a-fedora-appliance/initrd Added new image with ID: 5 $> glance add name=a-fedora-appliance-root < /var/lib/a-fedora-appliance/root Added new image with ID: 6
$> euca-run-instances a-fedora-appliance-root --kernel a-fedora-appliance-kernel --ramdisk a-fedora-appliance-initrd -k nova_key
$> euca-get-console-output i-00000001
A few problems, though:
- I got a kernel panic, see below
- We need to include a script which will download you public SSH key from the EC2 metadata API; see what I added with Oz. We could even use cloud-init for that instead
- The root image is still 4Gb, which means copying 4Gb to glance and then copying it back down to glance. The beauty of the tty images is that these copies are all small and then Nova resizes the image up to 10Gb automatically.
- While these big images are being copied, I see these database locking errors:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/735012
Clearly that's just a Nova bug, though.
Thanks, Mark.

A few problems, though:
- I got a kernel panic, see below
The panic seems to be because in febootstrap we always look for the last disk image as the root disk. eg. If there is /dev/vda and /dev/vdb as there appears to be here, then /dev/vdb is the one we expect as 'root'.
The reason for this is obscure -- to do with libguestfs where we always want [/dev/vda ..] to be the disks added by the user, and the last disk is the hidden appliance root.
Is it possible to rearrange the disks?
- We need to include a script which will download you public SSH key from the EC2 metadata API; see what I added with Oz. We could even use cloud-init for that instead
Yeah I guess if it was up to me I'd do it with libguestfs / virt-sysprep, but that's something to get upstream.
- The root image is still 4Gb, which means copying 4Gb to glance and then copying it back down to glance. The beauty of the tty images is that these copies are all small and then Nova resizes the image up to 10Gb automatically.
Of course it's really ~600 MB, because it's a sparse file, but yes.
