Hi Matthew, I can only speak for the Debian ( http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/debian/vanilla/7/x86_64/ ) and Ubuntu ( http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/ubuntu/vanilla/jenkins/ ) ones. (The others are save but talk to Nux for validation).
The debian and ubuntu ones are automatically generated through a jenkins job which executes debootstrap to populate a rootfs. The cloud-init stuff along with init scripts for password and sshkey injection are placed onto the box. The build log for the current debian templates can be viewed at: http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie/job/build_debian_amd64_template/31/console The build log for the current ubuntu templates can be viewed at: http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie/job/build_ubuntu_amd64_template/34/console I guess I could work on including check sums on those so you can verify they are what you get from openvm.eu If you still feel unsure you can easily roll your own jenkins template building environment. Using chef and vagrant I have simplified this into a one command step: "vagrant up". By default vagrant provisions this within virtualbox but you can easily use many of the vagrant provider plugins to provision to cloudstack, azure, aws, etc. https://github.com/imduffy15/cloudstack-templates It will effectively give you a clone of what you see at http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie along with this you can see all the scripts at the above URL that were used to build the templates. Hope this helps! Ian.
