packer-vagrant

This repository houses Packer templates for bare-bones Vagrant boxes for use with Puppet. The JeOS philosophy is used -- the boxes have a minimal set of packages installed (Puppet and virtualization extensions, primarily).

precise64

This template creates a minimal 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 base box for VirtualBox. To generate precise64.box, simply run:

$ packer build precise64.json

Some notes:

  • The box is up-to-date with security and kernel updates upon generation.
  • Puppet is installed from the Puppet Labs apt repository.
  • It uses the 12.04.1 ISO image so that the linux-virtual kernel may be used.
  • The apt lists are must be restored on first use (they take up space and can go stale if included).
