:package: **Debian Vagrant box** with **Vagrant** and **VirtualBox** for nested virtualization.

This project uses [dmotte/vagrant-ansiblebox](https://github.com/dmotte/vagrant-ansiblebox) as base box.

> :package: This box is also on **Vagrant Cloud** as [`dmotte/vagrantbox`](https://app.vagrantup.com/dmotte/boxes/vagrantbox).

## Usage

See https://github.com/dmotte/misc/blob/main/examples/vagrant-ansible-provisioner for inspiration on how you could use this box.

Remember to give your VM a decent amount of **RAM** and **CPU**, because it has to run other VMs inside.

```ruby

config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|

    vb.memory = 8192

    vb.cpus = 8

end

```

If you want to be able to access the **VirtualBox GUI**, you must set the Vagrant **X11 forwarding** flag:

```ruby

config.ssh.forward_x11 = true

```

and also install the `xauth` package inside the VM:

```ruby

config.vm.provision "shell", inline: <<-SHELL

    apt-get update; apt-get install -y xauth

SHELL

```
