Comment 7 for bug 457283

This is really on the (we do our best to keep it)short-list of steps that one currently needs to perform in order to migrate images (to and from). Remember that images which are configured to run on xen will almost surely need some minor modifications (...kernel modules?) in order to boot properly in KVM (which, as you know, Eucalyptus uses on Ubuntu). As kirkland points out, this is not a trivial issue to resolve, but it is surely on the list of semantic differences that we hope to mitigate as soon as we can.
