Right, so we can see why there is a mismatch.Straight libvirt/kvm (hence my push for the NoCloud datasource!)I'll leave it the right peeps on this list to comment, however I think what we ideally want to provide is a generic kvm image (in fact not necessarily specific to kvm; just call it a generic image) that only has NoCloud enabled. I think there is room to add in extra datasources (http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/datasources.html) as long as they don't inhibit the boot process and gracefully degrade without delay.A generic KVM image with NoCloud would be fine with me. I'm happy building my own images too (have just built one with NoCloud enabled to "see what happens"), but as an end user what I'd really like is to be able to pull and cache an official image.Its hard to cater for everything no matter how many different types of images you provide, however I'd just like to flag that Ubuntu do this pretty well.They do, but not without problems - I had some issues with the interfaces configuration in their image (it tries to use both /etc/interfaces and /etc/interfaces.d/* - unsuccessfully). I guess then init specific images is probably a good thing after all.
