[one-users] Contextualization

[Valentin Bud]

Hello Christophe,

Does your VM have a local network connection with the host or any other
computer in your local network? If that's the case you can finish the
installation,
reboot, connect to the VM via SSH, scp the contextualization package from
a local computer that is in the same network or has access to the network
the VM
is part of.

If you don't have VM network connectivity at all, the process I know of is
a little
bit tedious but doable.

Export the libvirt xml of the VM from the host, stop the VM, undefine the
domain.
Configure the xml to mount a local folder from the host inside the VM [1].
Somehow
deliver the context package in that folder. Define the domain using your
crafted XML,
boot the machine, VNC to it, mount the shared folder in the host and
install the deb/rpm.

Are you somehow building a Debian image? If so try out bootstrap-vz, a
bootstraping
framework for Debian specifically targeted at bootstrapping systems for
virtualized
environments.

Best,
