Assumpte: [DNG] Automate devuan install on VMware vsphere
Hi,

I’m attempting to automate installing devuan VMs in VMware using hashicorp packer and/or terraform. The docs mention that they support preseed files and also cloud-init.

https://www.packer.io/guides/automatic-operating-system-installs/preseed_ubuntu

https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/provision-terraform-infrastructure-using-packer-and-cloud-init

Is there good reasons to use one over the other for Devuan?

It looks like preseed has more configurability over the end system, but cloud-init is faster using an existing container image?

Is there somewhere I can find a list of all the preseed options for devuan installer? Or can I just refer to the Debian list at https://preseed.debian.net/debian-preseed/?

Is cloud-init supported on Devuan?

Are there any other tools I should be using instead of preseed or cloud-init?

Thanks,
Tom
