Comment 21 for bug 978127

I've verified this by setting up maas, then:

bzr branch lp:~smoser/+junk/backdoor-image
cd backdoor-image
img=/var/lib/maas/ephemeral/precise/ephemeral/amd64/20121008/disk.img
sudo ./mount-callback-umount --system-resolvconf -v $img -- \
  sh -c 'chroot "$1" /bin/sh' -- < ~/bin/modify-image

sudo ./backdoor-image --password=ubuntu $

where modify-image is attached patch.

Then started a machine (kvm) and watched it boot. It successfully enlisted. This is actually normal.
Then, accept the node, and boot again

The node successfully commissions, and shows:

in the /var/log/cloud-init.log, indicating that the fix was applied.
