make deps-do

From the images/capi directory, run make build-do-<OS> where <OS> is the desired operating system. The available choices are listed via make help.

Configuration

In addition to the configuration found in images/capi/packer/config, the digitalocean directory includes several JSON files that define the default configuration for the different operating systems.
