cleanup

I have a mostly working MAAS cluster.

I'm still learning juju, but while I'm doing that, I wanted to take this opportunity to do some clean-up tasks.

Here are my goals:

Configure ntp on the nodes.
Set the video mode on the nodes.
Set the timezone on the nodes.

Are these juju tasks? Or is this better attacked by mounting the disk image on the MAAS host, and doing the configuration there? If I do it that way, how do I get the nodes to recognize that they have to re-install the image to pickup my changes?

Thank you.

David
