      I've seen the instructions on how to create a cloud init template with CentOS. I am attempting to make a template for Ubuntu 18.04 and want to make sure I am doing things correctly.

      The CentOS instructions say to create a single partition. Is that also the recommendation with Ubuntu or should I go with the default LVM creation?

      Is the only package needed from apt cloud-init?

      Thanks

        Use a single partition because this is a nice way to let cloud init grow the system disk if needed.

        I made a guide a while ago about doing this on a Debian, it's exactly the same principle: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/debian-cloud-template-for-xenserver/
