I have a packer build that uses ansible to provision a Google Compute Engine image. This works when I run the build from inside an instance in GCE.
When I try and run the same build from within a docker container. I get Permission denied", "rc": 128, "stderr" for any Ansible step that tries to modify the filesystem of the GCE Instance.
