Hi,
I tried this template. But on Windows 10 the VMWare Workstation GUI opens
and shows the Ubuntu installation screen. It doesn't proceed by itself. I
click the button to
begin installation and once it finishes it shutsdown. I can restart the OS
from the Workstation GUI. Open SSH is not found and then I manually install
it but then SSH connection fails since packer is waiting for it.
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Mohan
