The Problem See here for a failing example. # /etc/fstab ... /dev/mapper/backup-rotating-1 /mnt/backup-rotating ext4 defaults,nofail 0 2 /dev/mapper/backup-rotating-2 /mnt/backup-rotating ext4 defaults,nofail 0 2 In this example two cryptsetup devices that are used for backups are on a rotating schedule. At any given time only one of those two disks is connected to the computer while one is offsite at a secure location. | |

But in fact there is a way to completely install new guests without leaving your SSH session - as long as the guest OS does have a text-based installer, that it. I have tested this with an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server guest. |
