Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. While it claims support for both Windows and Linux VMs, it consistently references Windows first (e.g., 'Windows or Linux VHD', 'Prepare a generalized image from a Windows VHD'), and provides a direct link only for preparing a Windows VHD image, with no equivalent link or instructions for preparing a Linux VHD. There are no explicit Linux-specific walkthroughs or examples for VHD preparation, and the only Linux-specific guidance is deferred to an included file for connecting to a Linux VM, rather than being present in the main flow. The documentation does not provide Linux-first or Linux-equal examples for key steps such as VHD preparation.
Recommendations
  • Add a dedicated section or link for preparing a generalized image from a Linux VHD, similar to the Windows VHD preparation link.
  • When mentioning both Windows and Linux, alternate the order or explicitly state that both are equally supported.
  • Provide Linux-specific screenshots or walkthroughs where applicable, especially for steps that may differ between OS types.
  • Ensure that all references to external guides (e.g., for VHD preparation) are present for both Windows and Linux.
  • Consider including a table or matrix summarizing differences or requirements for both Windows and Linux VM deployment.
