How auto answer questions in the process of VM (based on a oem VM image) first boot
I have made an OEM image (VM) for provisioning multiple VMs on my workstation each time. It works fine but I have to answer those local/language/keyboard/hostname/user on each VM, it really not a good experience. I google a lot, know the preseed/unattended/PXE installation may auto answer those questions, but it all based on clean installation. I'm finding a light/quick manner to achieve this beyond an OEM VM image. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! I might not have understood the question but... Wouldn't it be easier to copy the VM after you have configured it?
