I used a ready made version of Win10XPE the 64bit version from an italian website (/scarica/87) and I can boot the WinPE.vhd from Grub4Dos. I'm keeping "studying" -) and I also tried your sequence in this post successfully. hda "e:\test.vhd" -m 512 -cpu Nehalemĭear Erwan, everything worked perfectly with the latest version of vmount! Rem we could use qemu like this qemu-system-i386 -L. Rem extract iso to letter - but we could also have mounted our iso with vmount Rem format - no confirmation - live dangerous Rem createfixedvhd - depending on the boot loader we could go for a dynamic vhd or compress it with lz4įOR /F "tokens=* USEBACKQ" %%F IN (`vmount-win64 attachvhd %vhd%`) DO (įOR /F "tokens=* USEBACKQ" %%F IN (`vmount-win64 devices Harddisk%drive:~17,1%`) DO ( Just for fun (although there are plenty of other ways/tools).Ĭonverting an iso to a vhd using vmount and 7z. I'm after some direction, so I can try and make intelligent attempts. Then I may as well try that, because if it doesn't take long to create the VMDK image - then if the AWS import fails - then not a lot of time & effort has been lost. So if there are some tools that read an ISO image and produce a VMDK and they're easy to use. Having said that, the ISO image is around 700MB So my preference is to understand how I go about converting an ISO to a VMDK, and then try to do that within a VMware VM, as I think that is most likely to meet all the stated pre-req's as I understand them. The Official AWS documentation specifically recommends using VMware to create the VMDK image. That link I posted indicates that not all vmdk images are equal (i.e. So in answer to your question - I don't really know. I just want to try and minimise the amount of error. To be frank the info on the process seems limited and as a result there is probably going to be some "trial and error" on my part. I've looked at some YouTube videos and stuff I've found via Google to try and understand the process. A newbie when it comes to building a custom AMI (AWS Machine Image).
