I've verified that vagrant works just fine with an OSX guest. The only
feature that I've detected as broken so far is shared folders since
VirtualBox doesn't support guest additions for OSX. Here is what you need
to do in your VirtualBox OS X guest before repackaging:
1. Go to System Preferences > Sharing and enable remote login
2. On the same pane, select Allow Access for All Users
3. Launch /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
4. sudo -i # Enter your root password here
5. visudo
1. This will allow you to modify sudoers. Vim will be the default
text editor so make sure you're comfortable with basic file modifications
in vim before attempting this step. At the end of the file add the
following: vagrant ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
2. This is making the assumption that your admin user is named
vagrant.
3. Save and quit the visudo session
6. exit # to exit root
7. mkdir ~/.ssh
8. vim ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1. Copy and paste the public key from the following link into this
file: https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/blob/master/keys/vagrant.pub
2. Save and quit the vim session
9. sudo shutdown -h now
That should do it. Package the box and run vagrant box add. You may want to
include a vagrantfile in your package that includes the following:
Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |v|
v.gui = true
end
end
This will ensure that the box boots in GUI mode, which would make a lot of
sense using OS X as a guest VM. So, when packaging, don't forget the
--vagrantfile flag.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
