Hi,
I have been trying to use GitHub - cloudbase/windows-imaging-tools: Tools to automate the creation of a Windows image for OpenStack, supporting KVM, Hyper-V, ESXi and more. to create a windows 2019 UEFI image. I have created an image that works if I boot it within a hyper V environment it boot and works. I have checked the image and there are Curtain folders there and I have updated the unattend.xml to include a UEFI boot partition. I use tar.gz for the image compression and MAAS and RAW for the target and image type. I can explore the image with 7zip and see partitions.
However, watching boot under maas direction. It boots up to the point it calls the system to lay down the raw image on the disk with this command
installing in ‘custom’ mode to ‘nvme0n1’
writing image to disk {‘type’: ‘dd-gz’, ‘uri’: ‘http://172.30.0.34:5248/images/custom/amd64/generic/WinServer2019DatacenterUEFI/uploaded/root-dd.gz’}, nvme0n1
Running command [‘sh’, ‘-c’, ‘wget “$1” --progress=dot:mega -O - |zcat| dd bs=4M of="$2"’, ‘–’, ‘http://172.30.0.34:5248/images/custom/amd64/generic/WinServer2019DatacenterUEFI/uploaded/root-dd.gz’, ‘/dev/nvme0n1’] with allowed return codes [0] (capture=False)
it connects okay and downloads the image up to 100%

I am struggling to understand what isnt working to get the raw image, onto the server?
Any help or direction to how to solve this would be appreciated.
Thanks
