To avoid possible conflicts we recommend you avoid running sysprep, particularly if the target cloud platform injects CloudBase-Init during its import process (this is the case for example on K5).

For K5 platform, running sysprep is not recommended due to a conflict with CloudBase-Init. You can run sysprep on the instance after publication if needed.

Maybe you can make another commit directly? I think the wording is a bit long but it's fine :)

Your last proposition is ok for me
This warning gives users the instruction on how to work with sysprep, especially when cloudbase-init is injected by the target platform. In mid- and long-term, the issue will be fixed programatically. For now, users are advised not to run sysprep by UForge to avoid possible conflicts with cloudbase-init.
