Public bug reported:

The eucalyptus init scripts check for the number of loop devices, which
is set to 8 in Ubuntu.

Eucalyptus requests 32 loop devices for for mounting the root filesystem
to inject credentials. the storage controller uses it for volumes. you
run out pretty quick with the default (8).

The Ubuntu kernel provides 8 by default, but more can be created on the
fly.  Add some logic to the eucalyptus init scripts to create the 32
that it wants.
