Re: [packer] Re: boot command explanation

The Ubuntu desktop iso doesn't have the text installer, you should use the server iso and install the ubuntu-server package. Check out https://github.com/boxcutter/ubuntu I recommend that you start with that code and adapt it in small steps to your needs. Doing automated installs from scratch
