Just following up. What steps did you use. I did the followng:

- Created a volume from ElasticFox
- Launched an Thincrust-F9 instance.
- Attached it to a running instance on device /dev/sdb
- did mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdb
- mount -f ext3 /dev/sdb /mnt2

And I could access it. from the images. i could then unmount it and 
re-mount it on another Thincrust-F9 and a Thincrust-F8 machine.
