Have you tried creating one yourself? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cr … disk_image

No i didn't.   I was just wondering if someone already done it, as we can find qcow openstack ready img for Fedora, RHEL, Ubuntu and even Microsoft Windows 2012.

I really want to see Arch Linux on Openstack.  I guess we need to port cloud-init first into Arch Linux.   

I would like to do it, but i am not a developer sad  i don't know where to start.

I am very surprise to see that Arch has not been ported to Openstack, typically the Archlinux community is very dynamic and react fast.

Agreed that it'd be sweet to have an openstack image for archlinux!  I've already done the cloud-init porting https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cloud-init/ and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cloud-init-bzr/

This cloud-init is in use with our EC2 images from https://www.uplinklabs.net/projects/arch-linux-on-ec2/ .  You could try using these same build scripts that are linked on uplinklabs to make a build script that builds an openstack image.

Hi, I have just created Arch Linux OpenStack qcow2 image:

http://www.tuxfixer.com/download-arch-l … ow2-image/

Maybe somebody will make use of it.
This is basic image with base packages installed, I didn't install GUI and cloud-init, so You will have to customize it according to personal preferences.

The following might be useful:

And as mentioned there, if you don't need customizations you can use the images found here:
