It appears that the SSH shell provisioner isn't triggering on my Fedora build on Tart which is almost identical to my build on x86_64 VirtualBox.
You can reproduce this like so
git clone https://github.com/HariSekhon/Packer-templates pack
cd pack
make fedora-tart-http
The output is:
...
Fedora ISOs prepared
pkill -9 -if -- '.*python.* -m http.server'
cd installers && python3 -m http.server &
packer build --force fedora-38-arm64.tart.http.pkr.hcl

The Fedora prompt is up but the SSH provisioner never triggers, as verified by logging in and checking that the /etc/packer-version file created by my script never materializes, and the VM never shuts down to complete the build.
Those last 2 lines of the output are what makes me think that the SSH commands are not being run as when I got to tty2 to investigate there was no /etc/packer-version created by script and I can't see a hanging bash command it in the ps output (although it doesn't help that I have | pipe symbol to be able to less through the ps output).
