Nux commented on CLOUDSTACK-8038:
---------------------------------

Ilya,

I was referring to your help with converting vmdk to ova, if it is required.

I can add open-vm-tools (seems like buildroot supports it), but this nearly 
doubles the size of the disk requirements..
If we also look into xs-tools and it's python requirements (?) then it will 
probably get even less "tiny". Not to mention hyperv.

So I guess the question is, where do we draw the line between size and 
functionality.

I for one am happy with having paravirt drivers in the kernel, but leave out 
the "tools", pretty much as it is now.

Comments welcome.

> Using our systemvm build infra/scripts, create a tiny linux appliance (10-20 
> MB in size) that has the reset password/ssh-public-key scripts for testing
