This wishlist bug has been open a year without any activity. I'm going to move it to "Opinion / Wishlist", which is an easily-obtainable queue of older requests that have come on.
In case you want to work on that, consider writing a blueprints [1] and spec [2]. I'll recommend to read [3] if not yet done. The effort to implement the requested feature is then driven only by the blueprint (and spec).

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290455 Title: libvirt inject_data assumes instance with kernel_id doesn't contain a partition table Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Opinion Bug description: libvirt/driver.py passes partition=None to disk.inject_data() for any instance with kernel_id set. partition=None means that inject_data will attempt to mount the whole image, i.e. assuming there is no partition table. While this may be true for EC2, it is not safe to assume that Xen images don't contain partition tables. This should check something more directly related to the disk image. In fact, ideally it would leave it up to libguestfs to work it out, as libguestfs is very good at this.
