README

        
This builds an up-to-date Arch Linux Vagrant Base Box.

Currently this targets [Arch Linux 2022.06.01](https://archlinux.org/download/).

# Usage

Install Packer 1.8+ and Vagrant 2.2.19+.

## Ubuntu Host

On a Ubuntu host, install the dependencies by running the file at:

    https://github.com/rgl/xfce-desktop-vagrant/blob/master/provision-virtualization-tools.sh

And you should also install and configure the NFS server. E.g.:

```bash

# install the nfs server.

sudo apt-get install -y nfs-kernel-server

# enable password-less configuration of the nfs server exports.

sudo bash -c 'cat >/etc/sudoers.d/vagrant-synced-folders' <<'EOF'

Cmnd_Alias VAGRANT_EXPORTS_CHOWN = /bin/chown 0\:0 /tmp/*

Cmnd_Alias VAGRANT_EXPORTS_MV = /bin/mv -f /tmp/* /etc/exports

Cmnd_Alias VAGRANT_NFSD_CHECK = /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server status

Cmnd_Alias VAGRANT_NFSD_START = /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start

Cmnd_Alias VAGRANT_NFSD_APPLY = /usr/sbin/exportfs -ar

%sudo ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: VAGRANT_EXPORTS_CHOWN, VAGRANT_EXPORTS_MV, VAGRANT_NFSD_CHECK, VAGRANT_NFSD_START, VAGRANT_NFSD_APPLY

EOF

```

For more information see the [Vagrant NFS documentation](https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/synced-folders/nfs.html).

## qemu-kvm usage

Install qemu-kvm:

```bash

apt-get install -y qemu-kvm

apt-get install -y sysfsutils

systool -m kvm_intel -v

```

Type `make build-libvirt` and follow the instructions.

Try the example guest:

```bash

cd example

apt-get install -y virt-manager libvirt-dev

vagrant plugin install vagrant-libvirt # see https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt

vagrant up --provider=libvirt --no-destroy-on-error

vagrant ssh

exit

vagrant destroy -f

```
