Repository Details

Automatic vagrant base box building

About

This script will:

  1. download the Ubuntu 12.04 alternate server, 64bit iso
  2. ... do some magic to turn it into a vagrant box file
  3. output package.box

Usage

./build.sh

This should do everything you need. If you don't have mkisofs, install homebrew, then:

brew install cdrtools

Ben's notes

Forked Carl's repo, and it sort of worked out of the box. Tweaked office 12.04 release:

  • Downloading 12.04 final release. (Today as of this writing)
  • Checking MD5 to make sure it is the right version
  • Added a few more checks for external dependencies, mkisofs
  • Removed wget, and used curl to reduce dependencies
  • Added more output to see what is going on
  • Still designed to work on Mac OS X :) ... though it should work for Linux systems too (maybe w/ a bit of porting)

Carl's original README

Decided I wanted to learn how to make a vagrant base box.

Let's target Precise Pangolin since it should be releasing soon, I said.

Let's automate everything, I said.

Let's do it all on my macbook, I said.

Woo.
