Thanks for the testing, yeah there are issues we're trying to resolve
with the 2.0.1 before freeze.
I'll check your report and open BZs if there isn't one already.

that was used by ovirt-server to access VM consoles
I think we can remove it now and get it back if some new management
framework will use it

Yeah, ovirt-server is not actively developed anymore, see
https://www.redhat.com/archives/ovirt-devel/2011-June/msg00000.html
We're focusing now on ovirt-node only, which is an upstream project
for RHEV Hypervisor product and want to make it work stand-alone and
with different management frameworks. For a test, we're now including
libvirt-cim and condor-cloud.

I'm afraid this will grow, with CIM added and Condor-cloud adds >100MB
of dependencies...
That's why we're also working on a kind of plugin architecture where
it will be possible to add a set of packages to the core node image,
based on edit-livecd from livecd-tools. The core image will work
stand-alone and each "plugin" (tarball with RPMs + kickstart recipe)
will add support for one management framework.
