Description

When attempting to use the azure-chroot builder (actually, a modified version thereof), the current logic for computing the installation-target fails. Need to update so that it functions, correctly.

  • Logic needs to properly-compute the target disk, whether or not the (chroot) builder-host has a waagent-managed (ephemeral) disk attached
  • Logic needs to properly-compute the target disk, whether or not the (chroot) builder-host is using standard/legacy SCSI devices or using NVMe devices

Research direction

Start with amigen9-build.sh and trace the logic that computes the installation target. Exercise it with and without a waagent-managed ephemeral disk, and with both standard or legacy SCSI and NVMe devices. Done means the target disk is computed correctly for all four Azure builder-host combinations.
