facing issue similar to https://github.com/hatching/vmcloak/issues/84

vmcloak init -d --verbose --win7x64 win7 --cpus 2 --ramsize 2048

Upon executing above command, same vmcloak DEBUG message repeats endlessly until manually aborted (CTRL+c)

INFO:vmcloak:Starting the Virtual Machine u'win7' to install Windows.
DEBUG:vmcloak.vm:Running command: ['/usr/bin/VBoxManage', 'startvm', u'win7', '--type', 'headless']

Did you give it a Windows ISO? I can't see it's mount location specified in your command

Thank you @samwakel

The ISO is mounted at /mnt/win7

Per https://hatching.io/blog/cuckoo-sandbox-setup/, VMCloak will try /mnt/win7 (and /mnt/win7x64) by default.

Thank you @samwakel

FYI - I was able to install base Windows. I think it was vbox issue .. had to reinstall that.
