There is something fishy going on here. With this template:

{

   "builders" : [

      {

         "boot_wait" : "2m",

         "prlctl" : [

            [

               "set",

               "{{.Name}}",

               "--memsize",

               "1024"

            ],

            [

               "set",

               "{{.Name}}",

               "--cpus",

               "2"

            ]

         ],

         "iso_checksum" : "",

         "iso_checksum_type": "none",

         "type" : "parallels-iso",

         "ssh_wait_timeout" : "5m",

         "ssh_username" : "vagrant",

         "ssh_password" : "vagrant",

         "shutdown_command" : "shutdown /s /t 10 /f /d p:4:1 /c \"Packer Shutdown\"",

         "parallels_tools_flavor" : "win",

         "guest_os_type" : "win-7",

         "iso_url" : "/tmp/NetBSD-7.0.2-amd64.iso"

      }

   ]

}

Everything runs fine.

$ packer build template.json             

parallels-iso output will be in this color.

Warnings for build 'parallels-iso':

* A checksum type of 'none' was specified. Since ISO files are so big,

a checksum is highly recommended.

Can you save the above template and run:

touch /tmp/NetBSD-7.0.2-amd64.iso

packer version

PACKER_LOG=1 packer build template.json

and attache the output.
