Can't create new DO droplet from arch snapshot #66

Closed kockockockoc closed 6 years ago

Creation starts and then error msg: "Droplet create event failed, please try again".

DO support answer: It does appear you are trying to run Arch over Debian. Once you have made the updated changes this creates interfaces that aren't compatible with cloud-init or our system. Thus trying to create a new droplet from a snapshot of this will fail. Sadly to use Arch you would have to run the install on a new droplet. Any snapshots of that droplet however won't be able to create new droplets due to the changes the script makes.
