Yes. They have cloud-init enabled, which will look for a metadata service and (probably) not find one and then eventually time out and get you to a login prompt. To avoid that, you can boot with "ds=nocloud' (Apparently there's a RHEVm and vSphere datasource too but I haven't tested that.) Other than that, they're perfectly reasonable base images for anything. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mat...@fedoraproject.org> -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
