What you are trying to do should not be complicated at all.  I just went through something similar.

1:  Download a VM Package from TKL Website  (say Redmine)

2:  Install the VM Install as a new VM.  Configure it w/ IP addresses as needed.

2:  Modify it as you like (say with a new package)

3:  Run TKL-BAM backup to a backup image

4:  Install a second version to a separate New VM.

5:  Run TKL-BAM Restore to the new VM.   You will then have a second VM configured like the first VM but assumably with its own IP Address and SSL id.  Passwords, at this Point will be the same on both systems.

6:  Run Turnkey-Init (Not sure the actual program term just now) but this will re apply all your startup passwords and give a unique, rather than identical setup.

This is the standard way TKLBAM works rather than something unique.

Perhaps I am not understanding the special need you are trying to create that is not outlined here.  I have been recieving emails on this subject as I posted some time ago in this thread and my understanding of the problem is perhaps cursory.  Likely best for this to be in a new Thread rather than the original TKLBAM thread.

I hope this helps.
