From 4d553a0b49a561943f0f76621dbacdfd9945886d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tiago Ilieve Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2015 09:50:46 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] Update Azure README There isn't a requirement for RAW -> VHD conversion anymore. QEMU supports VHD images from versions 1.1 and up[1], which are available on `wheezy` (no need for `wheezy-backports`). Also updates the information regarding `wget`.
