Unfortunately, it doesn't help in my situation because my original problem is that due to missing functionality (like losetup, mount or kpartx) in the autopkgtest runners I cannot create disk images so I cannot create a disk image of that "config drive" usb stick either. :( It's okay if the images provided by cloud.d.o don't help in this particular situation inside autopkgtest on salsa ci but I didn't want to pass on an easy solution. If anybody can think of another option I would be all ears. :) Thanks! cheers, josch
