If you intend to use OpenStack Networking (neutron) with Ubuntu 12.04, you should install a backported Linux kernel to improve the stability of your system. This installation is not needed if you intend to use the legacy networking service (nova-network).

Install the Ubuntu 13.10 backported kernel:
# apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-saucy linux-headers-generic-lts-saucy

f4)
Reboot the system for all changes to take effect:
# reboot
