# puppet-guest_additions

A puppet module for installing guest additions in VirtualBox and VMWare.

This module was originally intended to be used with [packer](http://packer.io) 

to install the guest additions as part of the puppet-masterless provisioner.

## Example

```

class {'guest_additions':

  cd_image => '/home/packer/linux.iso',

}

```

Will assume that a CD containing the guest additions is available 

at /home/packer/linux.iso.  It will auto-detect the hypervisor (using 

facter) and install the appropriate guest additions.  Automatic 

detection of the hypervisor can be turned off by using the `platform` 

attribute.

Other optional parameters are:

 

 - cd_device (must be used when cd_image is absent)

 - mount_point (by default this is /media/cdrom)

 - platform (by default this is auto-filled by detecting the hypervisor)

 - remove_iso (if installing from an ISO file, delete it when finished - Default: true)

## Notes

 - The mount puppet type is not used to avoid writing to fstab.

 - This module is not entirely idempotent since it was designed to run as part of a provisioner
