Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH/RFC docs 3/3] cloud init: use 'import-from' disk syntax to avoid a step
Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2022 09:52:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220929075224.27891-3-f.ebner@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220929075224.27891-1-f.ebner@proxmox.com>
Put the 'scsihw' part into the previous command, so that the rather
complicated import command can stand on its own.
Signed-off-by: Fiona Ebner <f.ebner@proxmox.com>

Not entirely sure about this one, because it does make the commands a
bit more involved.
