Been having an issue for some time. After the creation and upload of the
template to ESX and converting to VM, I get "Operating System not found". I
have been scratching my head for the last couple of days.
Here is my build config. I am using fusion on my workstation than using
vsphere and vsphere-template. The upload is quick, but I can see .vmx when
it is completed in the templates folder.
$ packer version
Packer v1.3.3
Thoughts?
