Hello, thanks for your project, I'm using it for my own needs (a virtualbox), so I'm sharing back to you.

After succeeding in the installation setup and installation, I consistently failed to install the openssh-server package because of a lock on apt files.

After failing using various temporisation, and since the provision.sh create a new apt-daily.timer.d file, I could achieve my box by scripting the removal of the existing file (and in fact anything apt-*).

Thus after starting the terminal, I replaced your boot commands by the following sequence (note that I also had to add some waiting so that virtualbox got all the keystrokes, otherwise lots of keystroke went missing):

            "sudo<wait><spacebar><wait>-s<enter><wait>vagrant<wait><enter><wait10>",
            "rm<wait><spacebar><wait>-Rf<wait><spacebar><wait>/etc<wait>/systemd<wait>/system<wait>/apt-*<wait><enter><wait10>",
            "reboot<wait><enter>",

            "<wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10>",
            "<leftCtrlOn><leftAltOn>t<leftAltOff><leftCtrlOff><wait10>",
            "sudo<wait><spacebar><wait>-s<enter><wait>vagrant<wait><enter><wait10>",
            "apt-get<wait><spacebar><wait>install<wait><spacebar><wait>-y<spacebar><wait>openssh<wait>-server<wait><enter>",

            "<wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10><wait10>",
            ""

See https://www.packer.io/docs/templates/builders.html#named-builds.

Currently, the VM image once imported to VirtualBox will be named something weird, like "default_123123123_123123123".
