This section assumes that you have already installed a Debian Linux operating system from an .iso file downloaded from the [Debian website](https://www.debian.org/distrib/) to a virtual hard disk. Multiple tools exist to create .vhd files; Hyper-V is only one example. For instructions using Hyper-V, see [Install the Hyper-V Role and Configure a Virtual Machine](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh846766.aspx).

## Installation notes

* The newer VHDX format is not supported in Azure. You can convert the disk to VHD format using Hyper-V Manager or the **convert-vhd** cmdlet.

* When installing the Linux system it is recommended that you use standard partitions rather than LVM (often the default for many installations). This will avoid LVM name conflicts with cloned VMs, particularly if an OS disk ever needs to be attached to another VM for troubleshooting. [LVM](configure-lvm.md?toc=%2fazure%2fvirtual-machines%2flinux%2ftoc.json) or [RAID](configure-raid.md?toc=%2fazure%2fvirtual-machines%2flinux%2ftoc.json) may be used on data disks if preferred.

* Do not configure a swap partition on the OS disk. The Azure Linux agent can be configured to create a swap file on the temporary resource disk. More information about this can be found in the steps below.
30-
* All VHDs on Azure must have a virtual size aligned to 1MB. When converting from a raw disk to VHD you must ensure that the raw disk size is a multiple of 1MB before conversion. See [Linux Installation Notes](create-upload-generic.md#general-linux-installation-notes) for more information.

## Use Azure-Manage to create Debian VHDs
3333
There are tools available for generating Debian VHDs for Azure, such as the [azure-manage](https://github.com/credativ/azure-manage) scripts from [credativ](http://www.credativ.com/). This is the recommended approach versus creating an image from scratch. For example, to create a Debian 8 VHD run the following commands to download azure-manage (and dependencies) and run the azure_build_image script:
