Another issue: After using the program from bzr to patch the appropriate image, I was able to log in from the console, but NOT via SSH, so there's something wrong with the patches that's preventing SSH logins.

Sorry, a partial retraction on comment #1: The SSH login began working after a while; apparently it was simply delayed.

Also noting for anyone looking at this, the 1.5/trunk documentation needs updating as it refers to /var/lib/maas/ephemeral still.

I haven't gotten the script working; I simply patched the files manually.
