      YAML is all good, but it's clunky.

      It would be nice to have an option in the cloud config section to specify common cloud-init parameters in a form. Both user specified entries and options for fixed state parameters. As an example...

      User defined:

      • hostname
      • user
      • password
      • bootcmd
      • additional user specified parameters

      Fixed state/toggle:

      • chpasswd: {expire: true/false}
      • package_upgrade: true (update guest OS upon first login)
      • growpart (auto)

      Multiple choice:

      • groups
      • distro specific package installs

      The ability to map more XO/XCPNG specific variables would be convenient too such as

      • host domain -> guest domain
      • custom login splash (xcpng host and domain info)

      Cheers

        Why not. Double check there's not already an opened issue for this in XO bugtracker, otherwise, create it there 🙂
