Create a custom vmware ova with boot assets

[thoefkens]

Hi all,

is it possible to create a Talos ova with preloaded boot assets such as image cache and e.g. the resources for an extraManifests section? Is this described somewhere?

Thank you
Thomas

You could use the image cache as documented here and inlineManifests to have a configuration applied during cluster creation.

You'll need to make sure that your image cache includes all of the container images from whatever manifest you're including.
