Could you build this?

Partial Scripting an automated image build via Packer/debootstrap is achievable, but porting Proxmox VE packages and kernel patches to arm64/Raspberry Pi hardware requires deep embedded Linux and virtualization packaging.

What it would actually take: The build pipeline involves custom Debian packaging, debootstrap, and cross-compiling or building custom ARM64 Linux kernels with KVM and ZFS support tailored to Raspberry Pi SoC quirks. The core difficulty is maintaining out-of-tree Proxmox VE daemon packages (pve-manager, qemu-server, corosync) compiled for arm64 against Debian/Pi OS base libraries. It demands expertise in Debian packaging, embedded Linux kernel compilation, and QEMU/KVM hardware virtualization quirks on ARM.
