Bug Description

**************************************************************************
# A new feature in cloud-init identified possible datasources for #
# this system as: #
# ['Ec2', 'None'] #
# However, the datasource used was: OVF #
# #
# In the future, cloud-init will only attempt to use datasources that #
# are identified or specifically configured. #

# Make sure to include the cloud provider your instance is #
# running on.

Hi,
It looks like this cloud uses ovf datasource, and that they did so by attaching a disk to with an filesystem label OVFENV.

I think that there might be two bugs in the 'dscheck_OVF' in ds-identify that we could fix.
a.) has_cdrom seems to have returned false. I was relying on udev to have created a /dev/cdrom link to /dev/sr0. its possible that has not happened at the point the generator was run.
b.) we should consider a filesystem label OVFENV as indicating there is an ovf environment file on a cdrom (especially when it is on a sr0 device as is the case here).
