[Bug 1092265] Re: Nodes fail to boot from local disk on raring

[Andres Rodriguez]

Howdy all!

So I finally was able to do some investigation and the "fix" was quite
easy, however, I do not know how convenient it would be. What I had to
do in order for it not to fail was add APPEND hd0, like [1], in the
template.

Now, I haven't yet found out the reason why in past releases this
parameter was not necessary, however, it seems to be necessary now.
Doing so basically limits us from installing into any other partition
rather than the first HD, howeve,r as it stands in MAAS right now, the
installtion is done in the first disk, so this should not cause any
major errors.

Thoughts?
