I'm trying to install OpenStack on an older server using the Ubuntu cloud-installer. I have virtualization enabled in BIOS and kvm-ok tells me that I'm good to use KVM with acceleration.
$ kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
The Dashboard keeps showing a message that it's "Allocating" a new machine, which is immediately followed by this message
[INFO] ? Waiting for a machine. Machines summary: 18 unknown (error: kvm container creation failed: exit
status 1), 1 unknown
The number (18 above) increments each time. Any idea how to get around this or troubleshoot it?

This should be fixed with the latest packages in the testing ppa. Basically, we are dependent on the qemu-kvm package which wasn't installed by default for use with virtinst. Here is the associated bug for this:
So far I've gotten positive results from other testers who were able to continue once qemu-kvm package was installed on their system running the installer.
