[one-users] Contextualization of a VM with Centos 5.X

[Javier Fontan]

That's also a way to do it, sure. The scripts needed are:

https://github.com/OpenNebula/one/tree/master/share/scripts/context-packages/base_rpm
https://github.com/OpenNebula/one/tree/master/share/scripts/context-packages/base

Then the init script "vmcontext" must be turned on to run on boot.

I just was a bit concerned on doing it manually in that bunch of VMs/images.
