sorry Shanil for the delay,
it looks that in the vm settings, you have chosen to boot only from cd ?
this is why the vm doest boot, the cloud-init disk is a settings disk, not a boot disk
please go to update vm, change the boot order to use hard-disk, and boot the vm.

let me know if it helps,
Omer.
