creation of image from an iso and also using that image for a compute instance.

[new user]

Hi  group,

Can anyone help in achieving this task.

1) iso to bootable image

2) bootable image to compute instance

3) and ssh and rdp should work without any issues for the created vm.

Initially we followed this steps in the following documentation.

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/images/creating-an-image-from-an-iso-file#local-iso-file

But the problem is we are able to create the image out of it. But the image created is not a bootable one. Hence the compute engine instance created out of it will not have a bootable os on it and we cant rdp and ssh on respective windows and linux  vm's.

Can anyone find a alternative solution or fix for this issue?

Thanks

I see that the  guide that you mention does not apply to create bootable OS from ISO files. Instead, you should follow this guide to create custom images Win BYOL. With this guide, you will be able to use the daisy tool to build a custom bootable image.
