The new prerequisite bullets are written as meta-guidance (“if X is required, it should be stated…”) rather than actionable prerequisites for readers. Consider replacing them with concrete requirements (for example, whether cloud-init is required for Azure Local VM provisioning/guest management, and if so what minimum version/config is needed, and whether any specific kernel modules must be present) or removing them if they aren’t requirements. Also align this with the later step that installs cloud-init so the doc doesn’t contradict itself.

Avoid inline editorial notes/placeholders like <<...>> in published docs; it reads like an internal comment. Also “ISO's” should be pluralized as “ISOs”.

Suggested change
- If specific kernel modules are required (or none are required), it should be stated in the prerequisites. <<This would help customers prepare enterprise pipelines as manually running ISO's with every installation is not scalable>>
- If specific kernel modules are required (or none are required), state this in the prerequisites so that customers can prepare enterprise pipelines without manually running ISOs for every installation.
