Yes... we currently use Packer to achieve a repeatable build process, from scratch. We'd like to replicate that and be able to build from scratch without spinning up an EC2 instance, in an automated way.

I don't know how to phrase this, so apologies if it comes across wrong, I have immense respect for you personally and for CentOS... but, is it really that difficult to post the kickstarts and/or build scripts somewhere? Or at least enough of them to replicate something similar?

Thanks,
Jason

do you need to do much more than qemu-img convert -O vmdk
<centos-genericcloud.qcow2> ?
