I'm trying to test out the CentOS Stream 9 GenericCloud images.  I'm installing with:

VM_NAME="centos-stream9" USER_DATA="user-data" DISK="CentOS-Stream-GenericCloud-9.x86_64.qcow2"

virt-install \ --name "${VM_NAME}" \ --memory 2048 \ --vcpus 2 \ --import \ --cloud-init user-data="${USER_DATA}" \ --os-variant centos-stream9 \ --disk "${DISK}" \ --network network=default,model=virtio \ --graphics none \ --virt-type kvm

But I'm ending up with a corrupted disk image, e.g.:

Is anyone else seeing this?  Anything I'm doing wrong?

I'm not seeing any error in the boot messages.

I still get this consistently with the GenericCloud images. Is there something wrong with them or with my system?
