[SOLVED] How to install newer version of Cloud-init?

[HE_Cole]

Hey everyone!

I been making templates for my promox enviorment and i am stuck on some certain distros.
I am a network enginner not a systems engineer so alot of this is kinda new to me.

I have these distros working with cloud-init just fine.

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Cloud-init OK!
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS - Cloud-init OK!
Centos 7 - Cloud-init OK!
Debian 9 - Cloud-init OK!
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I need to make these distros with the latest cloud-init. "There repos use old versions"

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "cloud-init in this distro works expect for ip config ):"
Centos 6 "no luck at all"
Debian 8 "no luck at all"
Fedorda 28 "no luck at all"


Could anyone be so kind to give me a guide on how to install the proper cloud-init with those distros i would really appreciate it. 14.04 and centos 6 are the most important now.

I use use the Promox Cloud-init guide for taking a distros .iso and making it into a base image as a FYI.. And the cloud versions provided by those distros above dont work with promox and cloud-init so i have to build from the iso versions. I belive they dont work becuase they all use a old version of cloud-init. "by dont work" i mean data set in promox cloud init is not passed lol

Thank you Thank you.

Thanks for the input but that does not really anwser my question.

some distros simply ship a cloud-init version that is too old and buggy, not much we can do from our side

Thanks dcsapak You guys are great!

I was just thinking i would get lucky and someone might have a guide for manually installing a new version of cloud-init on a older distro which i belive is possible. https://forum.proxmox.com/members/dcsapak.36072/
