Hello to all debian-cloud followers, in my company we are starting using debian
and so I want to "acquire" experience on that. What attract me is your efforts
to create an infrastructure to publish debian on every cloud platform. As maybe
you have seen I written a previous message and ask where I can find a procedure
to create a debian wheezy image from scratch and publish it on Windows Azure: I
want to do it "just for fun" and obtain more knowledge about the process. I
have also read the various messages on the list about debian and amazon and the
publishing on it: as with Windows Azure I'd like to undestand and find material
about the creation from scratch of a debian wheezy image to publish..as I
said.."just for fun". I'd like to do that to compare the 2 processes and maybe
create 2 guides about it and help debian and people in this effort. For Amazon
images, for example, I'm bit confused: I've seen that there is a toolkit to do
that (and I understand you are packaging it to use in Wheezy) but in a response
on the list I read a suggestion to use Debian Installer; for Windows Azure, for
example (and even for Amazon), I'd like to know what to do after I create my
image in my pc (someone call it "on premise"?). I'd like to create a complete
guide for both cloud Platform (maybe hereafter for other cloud platforms) to
create an image from scratch until the publishing. I see this pages :
http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/CreateEC2Image
http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/WindowsAzureImage and they seems to me not so
simple to understand; so could someone help me to start on these and do some
test? Thanks in advance for your help. Marco Mangiante
