Dear all,
I am trying to build a CentOS image. I followed the instructions here:
at
http://docs.openstack.org/essex/openstack-compute/starter/content/CentOS-de1592.html
I have also added EPEL cloud-init package to the image that I build.
I can boot the image fine, however, the root partition does not resize
upon boot.
I am reading around but the documentation is quite sketchy. All I know
that I might need cloud-initramfs-growroot or something, but there's
no docs on how to achieve that.
Can I know if there's anyone on the list that has successfully create
CentOS images and using cloud-init to expand the root partition?

Yes, nova currently can only grow raw, unpartitioned, ext[234] images.
As for cloud-initramfs-growroot for EPEL, it currently doesn't exist, as per:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-December/002110.html
The workaround suggested in that thread was to
"run fdisk from initrd and expand the partition and fs."
thanks,
Pádraig.
