Building the boxes

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 and drop it on your lxc templates path (usually /usr/share/lxc/templates).

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:

ANSIBLE=1 PUPPET=1 CHEF=1 SALT=1 BABUSHKA=1 \
make precise

Will build a Ubuntu Precise x86_64 box with latest Ansible, Puppet, Chef, Salt and Babushka pre-installed.

When using ANSIBLE=1, an optional ANSIBLE_VERSION parameter may be passed that will specify which version of ansible to install. By default it will install the latest Ansible.

ADDPACKAGES="aptitude htop" \
make trusty

Will build a Ubuntu Trusty x86_64 box with aptitude and htop as additional packages pre-installed. You can also specify the packages in a file trusty_packages.

Pre built base boxes

NOTE: None of the base boxes below have a provisioner pre-installed
