Babelbox Packer build
This repository provides build configuration and Debian installer preseed files for building Babelbox virtual machine images for QEMU/KVM and VirtualBox using HashiCorp Packer.
Building the VM images
The images need to be built in separate steps because VirtualBox and KVM cannot reserve the needed CPU extension (VT-x, AMD-V) at the same time.
packer build --only=qemu debian-babelbox.json
packer build --only=virtualbox-iso debian-babelbox.json
Preparing for Babelbox demo
Due to image size reasons we do not include a Debian DVD ISO image into the
image. Therefore the VMs have to be booted into the regular OS (first Grub menu
option). Login as user demo with password babelbox. The shell should start
to download a Debian DVD ISO image into /srv/.
If this does not work due to connectivity or DNS issues you have vim and
sudo in your toolbelt.
