tlkdev 18.1 built appliances no network connection in Proxmox 8.3.2

Updated my lab tkl host to Proxmox 8.3.2 last night after being powered off a year or so. Downloaded the tkldev 18.1 iso and installed it to a VM. Everything works as expected.

Use tkldev to create a custom iso of my docker appliance to convert it to podman and after installing ISO in a new proxomx VM, have no networking. Boot to a different ISO to confirm that VM is getting a dhcp IP.

Use tkldev to create ISOs from the cloned core & mysql appliance repos, install them and they also don't have networking. After considerable troubleshooting, compare /etc/default/grub in the VM created from the tkldev ISO with /etc/default/grub in the VM created from the ISOs built using tlkdev and they are different.

In my vm installed from the tlkdev iso:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false
GRUB_TIMEOUT=3
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="consoleblank=0"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 "

In my vm installed from the custom isos created using tlkdev:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

Looking in the common folder in the tlkdev VM, I see that the template is correct:

root@tkldev .../products/mysql# cd common
/turnkey/fab/common
root@tkldev .../fab/common# grep -air GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET= ./
./overlays/turnkey.d/x86.d/grub/etc/default/grub:GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false

but it seems like the make command isn't updating grub

Hi @claflico - If you haven't already, could you build a test core iso to see if that works? I'd do it myself but I'm on holidays ATM 😀

Either way I'll be back at my desk in about a week.
