Not sure about that. As expected removing that part in the finished
image does not change anything, the file is used only while running
sysprep with the reseal option. Also none of the drivers I added
should be used in kvm so this should be reproducible by running

sysprep -bmsd
sysprep -mini -reseal -reboot

and rebooting once more after the setup finishes.

I will try to get an image that can work on kvm again.
