README
# About
This builds a [NixOS](https://nixos.org) Vagrant Base Box.
# Usage
Depending on your host, choose one of the next sections.
## 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
vagrant up --provider=libvirt --no-destroy-on-error --no-tty
vagrant ssh
exit
vagrant destroy -f
```
## Windows Host
On a Windows host, install [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install), then execute the following PowerShell commands in a Administrator PowerShell window:
```powershell
# NB if you want to use Hyper-V see the Hyper-V section in this document
# and do not install virtualbox at all.
choco install -y virtualbox --params "/NoDesktopShortcut /ExtensionPack"
choco install -y packer vagrant jq msys2
```
Then open a bash shell by starting `C:\tools\msys64\mingw64.exe` and install the remaining dependencies:
```bash
pacman --noconfirm -Sy make zip unzip tar dos2unix netcat procps xorriso mingw-w64-x86_64-libcdio openssh
for n in /*.ini; do
sed -i -E 's,^#?(MSYS2_PATH_TYPE)=.+,\1=inherit,g' $n
done
exit
```
**NB** The commands described in this README should be executed in a mingw64 bash shell.
### Hyper-V usage
Install [Hyper-V](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/quick-start/enable-hyper-v)
and also install the `Windows Sandbox` feature (for some reason,
installing this makes DHCP work properly in the vEthernet Default Switch).
Make sure your user is in the `Hyper-V Administrators` group
or you run with Administrative privileges.
Make sure your Virtual Switch (its vEthernet network adapter) is excluded
from the Windows Firewall protected network connections by executing the
following commands in a bash shell with Administrative privileges:
```bash
PowerShell -Command 'Get-NetFirewallProfile | Select-Object -Property Name,DisabledInterfaceAliases'
PowerShell -Command 'Set-NetFirewallProfile -DisabledInterfaceAliases (Get-NetAdapter -name "vEthernet*" | Where-Object {$_.ifIndex}).InterfaceAlias'
```
Create the base image in a bash shell with Administrative privileges:
```bash
cat >secrets-hyperv.sh <
