This tutorial guides users through creating and managing custom disk images using the Linode Cloud Manager. It covers initial setup, creating a new instance with low disk utilization, and using the Images Manager to create and deploy custom images. The video also explains administrative actions like editing, deploying, and rebuilding instances with custom images, and introduces uploading images for management.

What is the first step in creating a custom image in Linode?

• Check the disk utilization of the instance

• Select a region for the instance

• Choose a password for the instance

• Create a new Linode account

Why is it important to keep the disk utilization below 6 gigabytes?

• To reduce network latency

• To increase storage capacity

• To avoid exceeding the image creation threshold

• To ensure faster boot times

Which operating system is used for the new instance in the tutorial?

• Rebuild

What is a key feature of rebuilding an existing Linode with a custom image?

• It changes the instance's region

• It increases the disk space

• It restores the instance to a previous state

• It updates the operating system

What is an alternative method to create an image in Linode?

• By using a third-party service
