Hi guys,

I've made a template for Ubuntu 14.04 64bit. It's a minimal template as there's no Apache, Sendmail or such in it. Also it's set to GB timezone so change it once you roll it out if not in the UK.

It's my first template so would be good to get peoples opinions. It seems Ubuntu Server download is 64bit only now though desktop has a 32bit option so might be possible to build a 32bit version as well.

I sort of followed this but left the console stuff in for Proxmox...

And some of the stuff on this guide which I thought was needed like SSH gen reg for instance.

They suggested installing quota so I did. Not sure if that's needed on OpenVZ or not. If not I'll do it again without as want this to be pretty minimal. Might make an Apache version a bit later and maybe even a LAMP edition if people are interested.

Oh and I put nano in because vi is the work of satan (Just my opinion of course) ;)

Anyway here's the template fresh off the press. Not really tested much yet.

The networking did not worked, after i did these two commands in VM, it started working:
ifconfig venet0 VPSIPHERE netmask 255.255.255.224 broadcast BROADCASTIPTHERE(wasthelastipofmysubnet,ihave/27anditwas.31)
route add default gw my_subnet_ip_ending_with_.1_as_a_last_octet venet0
but still after Vm reboot, networking dont works again, need to do these two commands (

Hi! I have been waiting for a 14.10 LTS appliance template. It's great seeing the template here - but how come it's not on the official template list yet?
