I didn't understand. I have a Windows host and Virtual Box and Ubuntu on it. Inside Ubuntu I run the packer script which opens VMWare workstation and starts to proviision another Ubuntu VM. I am just trying to build the image so that I can try to provision software using Ansible etc. So the focus is software provisioning but I just decided to use my existing Ubuntu because it was there.
So I assume the error in https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/issues/9242 <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fhashicorp%2Fpacker%2Fissues%2F9242&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHjITHeP6oE0W7qAEpW86yHPkXQNQ> means there is nested virtualization and it is not supported. Is that what you meant ?
