Hi Alvaro, Attached is my base image JSON. If you look you can specifically see that the image is set to 40Gigs. I use this base image to build a .box image that I use to Ansible provision all of my tools. Everything works well except the OS seems to not partition the right amount of space for root (/) directory. How can I have Packer or Vagrant assign more memory.
I found your response here but I was wondering if there was any update? : https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/2339 ubuntu@opal-vagrant:~$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev 2.0G 4.0K 2.0G 1% /dev tmpfs 396M 432K 395M 1% /run /dev/dm-0 5.6G 4.5G 823M 85% / none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock none 2.0G 4.0K 2.0G 1% /run/shm none 100M 0 100M 0% /run/user /dev/sda1 236M 36M 188M 17% /boot 172.28.128.1:/Users/NFS/Shared 233G 77G 156G 34% /opt/opallabs vagrant 233G 77G 156G 34% /vagrant ``` { "builders": [ { "type": "virtualbox-iso", "vm_name": "base-ubuntu-1404", "guest_os_type": "Ubuntu_64", "format": "ova", "iso_url": "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso";, "iso_checksum": "bc09966b54f91f62c3c41fc14b76f2baa4cce48595ce22e8c9f24ab21ac8d965", "iso_checksum_type": "sha256", "ssh_username": "ubuntu", "ssh_password": "meowthis!!!", "ssh_wait_timeout": "20m", "headless": false, "vboxmanage": [ ["modifyvm", "{{.Name}}", "--memory", "2048"], ["modifyvm", "{{.Name}}", "--cpus", "4"] ], "disk_size": "40000", "http_directory": "http", "boot_wait": "3s", "boot_command": [ "<esc><wait>", "/linux noapic ", "preseed/url=http://{{ .HTTPIP }}:{{ .HTTPPort }}/allinone_preseed.cfg ", "hostname=ubuntu ", "debian-installer=en_US auto locale=en_US kbd-chooser/method=us ", "fb=false ", "keyboard-configuration/modelcode=SKIP keyboard-configuration/layout=USA ", "keyboard-configuration/variant=USA console-setup/ask_detect=false ", "initrd=/initrd.gz -- <enter>" ], "shutdown_command": "echo 'packer' | sudo -S shutdown -P now" } ], "provisioners": [ { "type": "file", "source": "files/base_vagrant_insecure_key.pub", "destination": "/tmp/base_vagrant_insecure_key.pub" }, { "type": "shell", "scripts": [ "scripts/base_provision.sh"] } ] } ``` On Thursday, October 6, 2016 at 9:57:43 AM UTC-7, Alvaro Miranda Aguilera wrote: > > hello > > I may be missing something, but I think you haven't shared anything that > can help you. > > What commands you run, whats the output, what you see, what the host os, > whats the guest, its Virtualbox? vmware? aws? > > > On Thu, Oct 6, 2016 at 3:14 PM, Gonzo Fernandez <xxthe...@gmail.com > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> Thank you Alvaro, yes the issue is with the OS creating the partition. >> I'm hoping there is a setting I can use to have the Os partition a bigger >> root directory.
