Clone a melange VM

You can select any VM and clone it in VM.

For simpler VMs:

• provide a hostname and ID for the new VM during clone, and hit OK
• wait for proxmox to clone it (how do you monitor this, not sure yet...)
• start it and open a console
• the hostname will be old, fix it

sudo hostname mahhost
sudo emacs -nw /etc/hostname

• get the MAC address

ip a

• add an entry to dnsmasq and restart the service

🌵 m@bitpost  [~/config/etc/dnsmasq.d] emacs -nw /etc/dnsmasq.d/mdm_lan_dnsmasq.conf 

• reboot the VM
• verify IP and ssh
• migrate ~/config

Config will be pointing to the config of the old box. Wow, for some reason, /etc/fstab is stowed and working. OK!

• create a new development/config/ubuntu/mahhost as a copy of the cloned one
• point ~/config to that
• run setup_stow.sh
