Hi all, is it possible to run a Packer build with both an existing base image disk (qcow2) and an ISO? It seems from reading the builder documentation, most of them only support one or the other but not both.
My use case is that I want to do a two phase Packer build. On the first phase, build out my disk image and generate a qcow2 disk image. On the second phase, use the disk from the first phase, a Clonezilla ISO to boot from, and the qemu args to mount a folder into the guest and get Clonezilla to generate backup. Basically I need to get from qcow2 to Clonezilla format to distribute elsewhere. I had thought about using a post-process on the first phase (if I used raw instead of qcow2) to then mount loop backs to the individual partitions and dump them using the same tools that Clonezilla does but its not clear which files Clonezilla creates that it actually needs during a restore and which are just informational metadata. Any thoughts or alternatives would be appreciated. Thanks, -- This mailing list is governed under the HashiCorp Community Guidelines - https://www.hashicorp.com/community-guidelines.html.
