Comment 7 for bug 565018

I just ran test on uec that carlos was seeing this on, 200 instances using mathiaz's lp:~mathiaz/+junk/uec-testing-scripts.

the end result shows 28 failures 25 of them had the following in their console log:
 | waiting for md at http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id (try 19/20).

This shows up a great deal more on the data center uec than it does elsewhere (Its occurs for me < 3% of the time, maybe even less than 1%).
