Centos and FreeBSD templates
Hi,
Should someone need templates, I've made some Centos 6 and FreeBSD 9
64bit templates for KVM, both are VirtIO enabled and have the password
and key scripts installed (and working from what I tested).
They have a "random" root size of 20 GB. Having said that, I'd really,
really, really like Cloudstack could resize the root disk (as the
competition does); for me it's the numero uno problem that stops a
central template repo (market place?) from existing. Imposing "random"
root sizes on people doesn't seem right.

I believe from what I've seen on this list already, Cloudstack only supports resizing Data volumes, not root volumes. I also believe it is an API command, but is not in the UI yet.

I don't see this option in the UI for either types of disk, but I was
interested in resizing the root disk anyway, not data disk (basically
what openstack does when launching an instance; use minimal e.g. 1 GB
template it, expand it to whatever flavour you like).

I thought this existed (at least for KVM)
