There is no need to configure the network as d2vm will generate a netplan configuration that use DHCP.

Build

USER=mygithubuser
PASSWORD=mysecurepasswordthatIwillneverusebecauseIuseMostlySSHkeys
OUTPUT=workstation.qcow2

d2vm build -o $OUTPUT --build-arg USER=$USER --build-arg PASSWORD=$PASSWORD --build-arg SSH_KEY=https://github.com/$USER.keys --force -v .

Run it:

d2vm run qemu --mem 4096 --cpus 4 $IMAGE

... you should be automatically logged in with a oh-my-zsh shell

You should be able to find the ip address inside the VM using:

hostname -I
# or
ip a show eth0 | grep inet | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d/ -f1

And connect using ssh...

In order to quit the terminal you need to shut down the VM with the poweroff command:

sudo poweroff

I hope you will find it useful and that you will have fun...
