The vhost_net kernel module is installed by default in the Ubuntu Trusty image on mycloud.rackspace.com. In the VagrandCloud Trusty Image and the Official Ubuntu Image, that kernel module is not present.

The fix is to install the linux-image-extra package, which includes the vhost_net module. To avoid specifying kernel versions in my scripts, I install linux-image-extra-virtual.

With the pinned repo, I am unable to install any of the linux-image-extra-* packages. With a standard ubuntu repo, I can.

So I believe we have mismatches between different kernel packages present in the repo. All need to be updated to a consistent version.
