Description

✔️ Git DNS: github.com:(✔️ ) raw.githubusercontent.com:(✔️ ) api.github.com:(✔️ ) git.community-scripts.org:(✔️ )
✔️ Updated Container OS
⠧ Installing openzitiT

it gets as far as above then hangs forever. it seems openziti-controller 2.0.1 prompts for:

Configure ziti-controller now? [Y/n]:
Are you joining an existing cluster? [y/N]:

which causes:

apt install -y openziti-controller openziti-console

to block indefinitely.

if i manually kill apt and dpkg on the container, it gives seems to say install completed yet the script considers it a failure and auto deletes container

Steps to reproduce

just run the script, with advanced options in my case but not sure if it makes a difference
