Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by primarily describing the process of importing a Linux image using Windows-based tools such as Hyper-V Manager and PowerShell. The instructions and screenshots focus on Windows workflows, with only brief mentions of Linux alternatives (e.g., KVM, qemu) and no step-by-step guidance for Linux users. Upload instructions reference Windows-specific documentation and tools before mentioning cross-platform options. Linux-native hypervisors and workflows are not covered in detail.
Recommendations
- Add a parallel section detailing how to create and prepare a Linux image using Linux-native hypervisors (e.g., KVM, VirtualBox) and tools.
- Provide step-by-step instructions for converting and resizing disks using Linux command-line utilities (e.g., qemu-img, dd).
- Include Linux-specific examples for uploading VHDs to Azure, such as using AzCopy or Azure CLI from a Linux terminal.
- Reference Linux documentation and workflows before or alongside Windows equivalents, ensuring parity in guidance.
- Add screenshots and command examples for Linux environments to match the detail provided for Windows/Hyper-V.
- Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which are specific to Windows or Linux, helping users choose the appropriate workflow.
