Comment 2 for bug 1576692

Martin,

Probably worth noting that this impacts upon the configuration systems as well. I'm using the PostgreSQL puppet configuration system, and that will sit in a loop waiting for PostgresQL to come up before moving onto the next stage of the configuration.

So if you are using puppet within cloud-init, and cloud events delay the start event until the boot is complete, then the configurator that expects things to happen in sequence will break.

It looks to me that large chunks of cloud-init need to be moved so it runs after 'multi-user.target' has been reached, not just package installation.
