Detailed Description
Freebox Delta has virtualisation support and allow to install some liniux distribution. If we want to provide them a mageia 9 image to have it proposed by default we need to build aarch64 (arm64/armv8) cloud images: qcow2 images that boot with EFI, and have cloud-init enabled.
Why it would be good for Mageia to do it
It will allow us to have mageia provided as default in Freebox Delta.
