Converted the image building logic within this repository to a Packer template with the assistance of an LLM. This is still a work in progress.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Here's how I ran this. Just noting this for future me to document it.
Download the virtio ISO.
curl -LO https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/stable-virtio/virtio-win.iso
Download the Windows Server 2022 ISO: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2195686&clcid=0x409&culture=en-us&country=us
Run Packer.
./build.sh \
-var "windows_iso_path=$HOME/Documents/windows-server-2022-evaluation.iso" \
-var "virtio_iso_path=$HOME/Documents/virtio-win.iso" \
-var "headless=false"

Added @daberkow as a reviewer since we were discussing how to simplify the Windows image building process. |
