## Building the boxes
2014-03-27 13:14:13 +00:00
_In order to build the boxes you need to have the `lxc-download`
template available on your machine. If you don't have one around please
create one based on [this](https://github.com/lxc/lxc/blob/master/templates/lxc-download.in)
2014-03-27 13:14:13 +00:00
and drop it on your lxc templates path (usually `/usr/share/lxc/templates`)._

```sh
git clone https://github.com/fgrehm/vagrant-lxc-base-boxes.git
cd vagrant-lxc-base-boxes
make precise
```
By default no provisioning tools will be included but you can pick the ones
you want by providing some environmental variables. For example:
```sh
PUPPET=1 CHEF=1 SALT=1 BABUSHKA=1 \
make precise
```
Will build a Ubuntu Precise x86_64 box with latest Puppet, Chef, Salt and
Babushka pre-installed.
## Pre built base boxes
