Hi guys,
I'm new to packer.
Im on centos 7.2, Packer v0.10.1
My ultimate goal is to spinup a centos vm on vcenter with vmware-iso
builder.
using a custom minimal iso which has kick-start profiles to install from
spacewalk.
i.e packer -> bootiso-to-kickstart-from-spacewalk ->bootcommand referrign
kickstart profile -> install vm on vcenter
Here is my initial json file. but im gettign below error when runnign
packer build on my json file, any ideas why its failing?
so the builder section builds an image which can be in turn transferred to
vcenter in post-processing? or how does the process actually work.
Thanks in advance.
