Download the Hetzner Image

First, download the Hetzner image from the Omni portal by clicking on the “Download Installation Media” button. Now, click on the “Options” dropdown menu and search for the “Hetzner” option. Notice there are two options: one for amd64 and another for arm64. Select the appropriate option for the machine you are registering. Now, click the “Download” button.
Place the following in the same directory as the downloaded installation media and name the file hcloud.pkr.hcl:Copy
packer {
  required_plugins {
    hcloud = {
      version = ">= 1.0.0"
      source  = "github.com/hashicorp/hcloud"
    }
  }
}

locals {
  image = "<path to downloaded installation media>"
}

source "hcloud" "talos" {
  rescue       = "linux64"
  image        = "debian-11"
  location     = "hel1"
  server_type  = "cx11"
  ssh_username = "root"

  snapshot_name = "Omni Image"
}

build {
  sources = ["source.hcloud.talos"]

  provisioner "file" {
    source = "${local.image}"
    destination = "/tmp/talos.raw.xz"
  }

  provisioner "shell" {
    inline = [
      "xz -d -c /tmp/talos.raw.xz | dd of=/dev/sda && sync",
    ]
  }
}
Now, run the following:
export HCLOUD_TOKEN=${TOKEN}
packer init .
packer build .
Take note of the image ID produced by running this command.
