The size of the root disk is set based on the template, and it can't be 
changed.  This has to do with the fact that new root volumes created from a 
template are actually created as a writable snapshot of the template.  This is 
done to save space and also to create the VM faster, but the penalty is that 
all instances created from a template share the same size root volume.

Subject: customising the ROOT disk

Hi,

When I'm creating a new instance is there a way to specify the size of 
the ROOT disk? I see it uses the template's size (which in my case is 
tiny) and I need to have it increased.

Pointers?

Thanks,

Lucian
