Hi,

Thanks for windows-openstack-imaging-tools -- very useful scripts & good documentation. I'm trying to prepare image for testing on the VMware & bare metal.

Successfully prepared Windows 7 SP1, including all needed drivers, converted it to ddtgz format, attached to MAAS region controller. But after the installations process reboots once, windows start continuously rebooting.

On the MAAS logs I have:

Hello,

The looks like a problem with Cloudbase-Init installation folder, which is required to be on the root partition, at one of these 3 known paths: https://github.com/cloudbase/windows-...

Can you make sure this is the case in your environment?

Thank you,
Adrian Vladu

Hello Adrian,

Thanks for the tips, you are right!
I had missed cloudbase-init in my hyper-v instance, somehow.

Thank you for this great job!

Best regards,
Dmitriy
