Okay,
I sure will try to recreate this.  I was following the instructions on the
RDO website as best as I could.

I am installing on CentOS7 with all of the updates.

yum install -y https://www.rdoproject.org/repos/rdo-release.rpm
yum install -y openstack-packstack
packstack --allinone --os-neutron-install=y --provision-demo=n

(Note: the instructions say to use "packstack --allinone
--os-quantum-install=y --provision-demo=n
--provision-all-in-one-ovs-bridge=n").
I couldn't get that whole command to work in several different tries.

After that, I have gone through basic commands to add two networks and two
subnets as well as add a secgroup.  I just needed to get a keypair to boot
and later login to an virtual instance.

When I was reading the previous mailing list entries, one person suggested
that localhost was the problem.  On this installation attempt (done this a
bunch of times now), I did forget to set the hostname.  I have set the
hostname now, and I have rebooted several times.

Here are the commands that I have tried to make the keypairs:

nova keypair-add key5 > /root/key5.pem

ssh-keygen -t rsa -f cloud.key -N ''
nova keypair-add --pub_key cloud.key.pub cloudkey

and, I just tried again to get the output:

[root at slacker2 nova(keystone_admin)]#  ssh-keygen -t rsa -f test2.key -N ''
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Your identification has been saved in test2.key.
Your public key has been saved in test2.key.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
6b:f4:36:18:bc:d2:47:f2:d8:7b:10:39:eb:04:d6:3f root at slacker2.net
The key's randomart image is:
+--[ RSA 2048]----+

|      . BoB. .   |
|       o o.o.    |
|          ..     |
+-----------------+

I hope this gives you some information!
Thank you !!
