Pl. also backport to 4.1 (CLOUDSTACK-1066's fix version is >4.1, though in cfg files we use version 4.2?) so we are in sync. Not sure about this. Are you proposing this for 4.1?

Dhclient reverse looks up 10.0.2.15 (the address of the vm) and gets a valid response from the corporate dns server. Annoyingly this is used to name the volume group during partitioning. The only foolproof way may be to write a custom partman recipe in preseed.cfg. You can change the ip of the vm using :vm_options in veewee but veewee's http server is hardcoded to 10.0.2.2 so nothing else works. > >> What is left: >> Openswan requires interactive input to install.

Well veewee doesn't let you write custom scripts that execute on the host? Anyway, I figured we can use debconf-set-selections to avoid this problem. As far as copying the custom scripts goes, perhaps we can wget from git-wip-us.apache.org repo ? I've left a few FIXME in cloudstack-packages.sh, please take a look. -- Chiradeep
