Amazon Linux 2

[cyruspy]

Hello!,

Anybody tested the qcow2 Amazon Linux 2 image?, they seem to be prepared to use cloud-init but doesn't seem to work as is with Proxmox 7. There's a seed.iso they provide and you should adjust by hand, but would like to use the stock cloud-init support in PVE.

Ref: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/amazon-linux-2-virtual-machine.html

Regards.

My bad, works out of the box, I just forgot to add the Cloud-Init drive.

Hi,

How did you get this working without using the seed.iso image? What steps did you use?

I have a working vm, I had to use the below to make it. Also note that SCSI doesnt work, I had to use SATA as the Bus/Device from the web console

#create vm + customize

qm create 9002 --name "aws-ami" --memory 2048 --cores 2 --net0 virtio,bridge=vmbr0
qm importdisk 9002 /var/lib/vz/amzn2-kvm-2.0.20220912.1-x86_64.xfs.gpt.qcow2 local -format <qcow2
qm set 9002 --boot c --bootdisk scsi0
qm set 9002 --ide2 local:cloudinit
qm set 9002 --serial0 socket --vga serial0
qm set 9002 --agent enabled=1
