Hello everyone,

I'm newbie to packer, I'm trying to install debian os in virtualbox. But it
looks network is not connected with host machine and failed to retrieve the
preseed file.

Json file:

So, I tried to add a nic card to vbox but it failed with error

What's the problem and how to retrive the preseed file?
