I have tried the following options: 1) change the only (first) bridged nic from dhcp to static ip, packer can be successful. but it was valueless for my configuration, we need bridged nic with dhcp. 2) add the second nic to nat (keep the first as bridged), failed. 3) change the first bridged nic to NAT , add the second nic to be as bridged. packer can be successful. but we need manually add config info for nic 2, otherwise nic can't get dhcp ip. this is a little difficult if we want to automate considering the types of host machine/guest os. 4) will try the fourth option,
a)first change the only (first) bridged nic to NAT. b)do some provioner script operation c) poweroff the guest machine d) add a script to change the only (first) bridged nic to NAT. e) export the vm to ova. Hi guys, is it possible to add stepd between c and e ?
