Note: I originally wrote this blog post a few weeks ago, though it was pending validation from my company (to make […]

Thanks to Steve for it. The datasource_list is now correct, in both the Stretch and Testing image (previously, cloustack was set too early in the […]
For a long time, I’ve been very much annoyed by network setups on virtual machines. Either you choose a bridge interface (which is very easy with something like Virtualbox), or you choose NAT. The issue with NAT is that you can’t easily get into your VM (for example, virtualbox doesn’t exposes the gateway to your […]
