Downloaded the Linux Master from here:

https://docs.openstack.org/training_labs/ (https://docs.openstack.org/training_l...)

Left it in the default mode of virtualbox (already installed and tested that it works fine - it did).

Ran this:

./st.py -b cluster

and when it goes to build the disk it's taking forever - like ridiculous: over 24 hours now and it's still writing dots about one per second.

This is happening on two machines - I'm doing separate installs.

Both are VMs running in VMware Workstation, but that shouldn't affect the time to this degree.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
