Public bug reported: Hi,
when cloud-init starts on snappy for the first time, it will generate host SSH keys. If power is removed after this point, fsck might replace this uncommitted data by zero files, in which case it's impossible to login to the system. A workaround would be to flush/sync data to disk after writing the files, but I guess the root cause fix would be to check on each boot if the files were successfully written in full or otherwise regenerate them. Cheers, ** Affects: cloud-init (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1450383 Title: doesn't cope with corrupted SSH key files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1450383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
