The only guide that worked for me is: https:\/\/www.techrepublic.com\/article\/microsoft-linux-is-not-what-you-think-or-hoped-it-would-be\/ but I made some changes to the procedure (i.e., I built CBL-Mariner instead of CBL-MarinerDemo)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which meant that after creating a VM with the VMDK, I couldn’t login after I booted up the CBL-Mariner. I had to slave the VMDK to another VM, in order to manually change the <NULL> to the encrypted value of a known password. Alternatively, you can use the VMware disk tool to mount the VMDK after generating it on the Ubuntu instance, and edited the \/etc\/shadow file.
