Microstack tutorial - single node install fails with "Error: No model openstack-machines found"

Hello - first post! Trying single node quickstart tutorial at

https://canonical.com/microstack/docs/single-node

However cannot get past the cluster bootstrap. Tried both guided and quick start, even the 2024.1 edge channel, no difference. Every page out there assumes that his process is fail proof! :smile: so there little info on how to debug this situation that I could find.

Ubuntu 24.04 Server, latest maint

$ sunbeam cluster bootstrap
Management network should be available on every node of the deployment. It is used for communication between the nodes of the deployment. Requires CIDR format, can be a comma-separated list.
Management network (192.168.1.0/24): 
This will configure the proxy settings for the deployment. Resources will be fetched from the internet via the proxy.
Use proxy to access external network resources? [y/n] (y): n
A region is general division of OpenStack services. It cannot be changed once set.
Enter a region name (cannot be changed later) (RegionOne): 
OpenStack services are exposed via virtual IP addresses. This range should contain at least ten addresses and must not overlap with external network CIDR. To access APIs from a remote host, the range must 
reside within the subnet that the primary network interface is on.
OpenStack APIs IP ranges (172.16.1.201-172.16.1.240): 192.168.1.90-192.168.1.99
Error: No model openstack-machines found

Are there any tips on how to debug this?

update - donā€™t know lots about juju, but for some reason, during bootstrap, model openstack-machines disappears:

vmartell@the-cloud:~$ juju status --color
ERROR No selected model.

Use "juju switch" to select one of the following models:

  - localhost-localhost:admin/openstack-machines
 2 vmartell@the-cloud:~$ juju status --color
ERROR No selected model.

Only the controller model exists. Use "juju add-model" to create an initial model.

Issued those commands while the bootstrap was running - and it fails a bit after the above situation occurs.

Have I run into a bug? should I use a different channel? or maybe a different snap? the ā€œmicrostackā€ snap seems to be availableā€¦
