Can't extract file in rescue mode Kimsufi
I have a dedicated server on Kimsufi that has 32GB RAM. I'm trying to install a premade DD Image of Windows Server 2025. I booted into rescue mode and I used this cmd:
wget - O - "https://downloadsite.com/vhd/en-us_win2025_uefi.xz" | xzcat | dd of =/ dev / sda
but it gave error:
xzcat: (stdin): File format not recognized
How can I fix this?

is that the actual URL you're using? as it 301's to a for sale page.
no it's just an example URL as I don't want to expose it to the public
ok well, the error is descriptive.
