Hi,

I am experimenting with packer and based on the previous post I thought I'd 
try the bento, https://github.com/chef/bento, Centos 7.2 json file just to 
see if I could get it to work however it is failing with an error. Virtual 
Box 5.1 is freshly installed.

I am trying it on a VMWare VM 4GB memory/32GB storage. The default json 
allocated a 40GB drive so I reduced that to 16GB and my VM has 22GB free.

Will this just not work, creating a VM within a VM? Or should it work. I 
ran packer in debug mode but it didn't help much and there is nothing in 
the Centos journalctl (var/log/messages) to indicate why Virtual Box is 
failing to start the VM.


[root@localhost bento-master]# /usr/bin/packer build -debug 
-only=virtualbox-iso centos-7.2-x86_64.json

Debug mode enabled. Builds will not be parallelized.

*virtualbox-iso output will be in this color.*
