This script helps you to download a Debian cloud image and to convert it into an OVA file.

The OVF file included into this script was taken from an Ubuntu OVA file.

This script depends on wget and qemu-img from the qemu-utils package that you may install using the following command:

sudo apt install -y wget qemu-utils

Create a new directory:

mkdir debian-ova

Change directory:

cd debian-ova

Download this script:

wget https://github.com/burbuja/debian-ova-creator/raw/refs/heads/master/debian-ova-creator.sh

Change the permissions:

chmod +x debian-ova-creator.sh

Execute it:

./debian-ova-creator.sh -d [debian_version]
