packer-maas is useless. I downloaded Rocky’s GenericCloud image, created a custom image, and also created an Ubuntu local mirror for successful Commissioning in a closed network environment.
I deployed UEFI Rocky 8 to a client on the LAN.
packer-maas will never work if you just git clone it. Also, you should use apt to put MAAS in, not snap. And Ubuntu 24 can’t install curtin with apt, so you should use Ubuntu 22.
Is it really maintained?
Yes it is. Please add a bug to packer-maas if there are some issues.
Also, you should use apt to put MAAS in, not snap.
I guess your image was not in your home folder: the MAAS CLI from the snap can only access your home folder when uploading the image.
Thank you very much.
No matter how much I edit the packer template file and the kickstart file, it never builds.
I can’t decide if it’s a bug or if I’m not editing the right way, but I will create all distributions from cloud images when using MAAS in the future.
It is puzzling that Canonical does not offer such an alternative and there are so few articles about using cloud images to create and register custom images.
Is everyone made of packer-maas?

Hard to say if you don’t explain what are you trying to do.
