Hi,
I wanted to create my own debian jessie template and for the first try used lxc-create (which comes with lxc bx default) for doing that. I was able to boot, but the output in vnc console was pretty messed up: for one command it looked like I was logged in and for the next it said I wasn't. So I coundn't do anything useful.
So I tested the debian appliance builder (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Debian_Appliance_Builder) and the generated template worked right away. I just had a small issue that I had to add a 2nd line after "Description:" (like in the example in the wiki) or the template creation would fail.
I noticed that the template created by dab is about 50MB bigger than the one created by lxc-create so mabye dab adds some packages that are required for the console to run flawlessly.
Or maybe I just made some other mistake.
Has anyone successfully created a template for proxmox using lxc-create or are you all just using dab?
Regards Michael
