If you ever plan on creating virtual machines in a hypervisor it makes sense to create a template and then clone that as it saves you a lot of time

But creating a template by installing an operating system from an ISO image for instance can be time consuming itself

And that's where Cloud-Init comes to the resuce because it saves you time when creating templates

Now most Linux distros support this and although it's aimed at Cloud providers, you can also use this with Proxmox VE

So in this video we show you how to create Debian templates and deploy VMs from them using Cloud-init

NOTE: Make sure to delete the CloudInit drive from each VM you clone, once you've tested it works
