Very EC2 centric, and most are already known, but I'll repeat my pet issues here for completeness: * some modules are purposedly not shipped in the virtual kernel to save space, I'd personally prefer if Ubuntu kernel features were identical inside and outside the cloud, but I wouldn't mind if I had to install an extra package to get modules which would have been striped out; see LP #732046 * I didn't test on natty, only on maverick, but it was quite manual to install a different kernel flavor in an EC2 instance and get it picked up by pv-grub * would be nice if we weren't using GRUB 1 anymore; it's a bit confusing to end up with both in instances * the server kernel in maverick (not the virtual one) was lacking some features to work as a complete drop in replacement for the virtual one and provide Xen console, reboot etc. -- I didn't test in natty I'm confident that some of these have been resolved in natty and I apologize for not having tested the above with natty. On a happy note, I found it a real pleasure to use EC2 images; good work! -- Loïc Minier -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
