Create a Base OpenSUSE Image for Vagrant
There are a bunch of examples on the process. Here are a few sites:
- Creating A Base Box
- How to Create a CentOS Vagrant Base Box
- Creating a Custom Vagrant Box
- Building a Vagrant Box from Start to Finish
First of all let’s define what a box is in Vagrant terminology, from Vagrant Docs: Boxes:
Instead of building a virtual machine from scratch, which would be a slow and tedious process, Vagrant uses a base image to quickly clone a virtual machine. These base images are known as boxes in Vagrant, and specifying the box to use for your Vagrant environment is always the first step after creating a new Vagrantfile.
So let’s create a base image / box of an OpenSuse VM. So let’s download the OpenSuse ISO:
elatov@kmac:~$ls -lh download/openSUSE-13.1-DVD-i586.iso

Create a Template VM in VirtualBox
Now let’s create a VM in VirtualBox. Here is the command sequence for that.
-
Create a VM:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage createvm --name vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --ostype OpenSUSE --register Virtual machine 'vagrant-opensuse13-32bit' is created and registered. UUID: e6e1c3fe-1321-4c2e-b17a-f81c31b345ea Settings file: '/Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vbox' -
Assign 1GB of RAM to the VM
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --memory 1024 -
Assign a Nic to the VM and set the network type to NAT
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --nic1 nat -
Create a NAT rule from host machine 2223 to VM port 22
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --natpf1 "guestssh,tcp,,2223,,22" -
Create the Hard Drive and attach it to the VM
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage createhd --filename .virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vdi --size 15000 --format VDI 0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100% Disk image created. UUID: afe7c8c7-a679-45c0-afbb-8e72e1472faa elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage storagectl vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --name "SATA Controller" --add sata --controller IntelAhci elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage storageattach vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --storagectl "SATA Controller" --port 0 --device 0 --type hdd --medium .virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vdi -
Create an IDE port and attach an ISO to it
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage storagectl vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --name "IDE Controller" --add ide --controller PIIX4 elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage storageattach vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --storagectl "IDE Controller" --port 1 --device 0 --type dvddrive --medium download/openSUSE-13.1-DVD-i586.iso -
Confirm all the settings
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage showvminfo vagrant-opensuse13-32bit Name: vagrant-opensuse13-32bit Groups: / Guest OS: openSUSE (32 bit) UUID: e6e1c3fe-1321-4c2e-b17a-f81c31b345ea Config file: /Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vbox Snapshot folder: /Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/Snapshots Log folder: /Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/Logs Hardware UUID: e6e1c3fe-1321-4c2e-b17a-f81c31b345ea Memory size: 1024MB Page Fusion: off VRAM size: 8MB CPU exec cap: 100% HPET: off Chipset: piix3 Firmware: BIOS Number of CPUs: 1 PAE: on Long Mode: off Synthetic CPU: off CPUID overrides: None Boot menu mode: message and menu Boot Device (1): Floppy Boot Device (2): DVD Boot Device (3): HardDisk Boot Device (4): Not Assigned ACPI: on IOAPIC: off Time offset: 0ms RTC: local time Hardw. virt.ext: on Nested Paging: on Large Pages: on VT-x VPID: on VT-x unr. exec.: on State: powered off (since 2014-06-10T23:04:03.387000000) Monitor count: 1 3D Acceleration: off 2D Video Acceleration: off Teleporter Enabled: off Teleporter Port: 0 Teleporter Address: Teleporter Password: Tracing Enabled: off Allow Tracing to Access VM: off Tracing Configuration: Autostart Enabled: off Autostart Delay: 0 Default Frontend: Storage Controller Name (0): SATA Controller Storage Controller Type (0): IntelAhci Storage Controller Instance Number (0): 0 Storage Controller Max Port Count (0): 30 Storage Controller Port Count (0): 30 Storage Controller Bootable (0): on Storage Controller Name (1): IDE Controller Storage Controller Type (1): PIIX4 Storage Controller Instance Number (1): 0 Storage Controller Max Port Count (1): 2 Storage Controller Port Count (1): 2 Storage Controller Bootable (1): on SATA Controller (0, 0): /Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vdi (UUID: afe7c8c7-a679-45c0-afbb-8e72e1472faa) IDE Controller (1, 0): /Users/elatov/download/openSUSE-13.1-DVD-i586.iso (UUID: d1c5766b-c139-44cd-8267-160b35c06c5a) NIC 1: MAC: 080027FE0A3B, Attachment: NAT, Cable connected: on, Trace: off (file: none), Type: 82540EM, Reported speed: 0 Mbps, Boot priority: 0, Promisc Policy: deny, Bandwidth group: none NIC 1 Settings: MTU: 0, Socket (send: 64, receive: 64), TCP Window (send:64, receive: 64) NIC 1 Rule(0): name = guestssh, protocol = tcp, host ip = , host port = 2223, guest ip = , guest port = 22 NIC 2: disabled NIC 3: disabled NIC 4: disabled NIC 5: disabled NIC 6: disabled NIC 7: disabled NIC 8: disabled Pointing Device: PS/2 Mouse Keyboard Device: PS/2 Keyboard UART 1: disabled UART 2: disabled LPT 1: disabled LPT 2: disabled Audio: disabled Clipboard Mode: disabled Drag'n'drop Mode: disabled VRDE: disabled USB: disabled EHCI: disabled USB Device Filters: <none> Available remote USB devices: <none> Currently Attached USB Devices: <none> Bandwidth groups: <none> Shared folders: <none> VRDE Connection: not active Clients so far: 0 Video capturing: not active Capture screens: 0 Capture file: /Users/elatov/.virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.webm Capture dimensions: 1024x768 Capture rate: 512 kbps Capture FPS: 25 Guest: Configured memory balloon size: 0 MB -
Enable RDE for the VM, so we can connect to the VM using Remote Desktop (port 3389) and finish the install.
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --vrde on elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --vram 128 -
Start the VM in headless mode:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxHeadless --startvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit Oracle VM VirtualBox Headless Interface 4.3.12 (C) 2008-2014 Oracle Corporation All rights reserved. VRDE server is listening on port 3389. -
Connect to the VM with your favorite RDP Client
elatov@kmac:~$open /Applications/Remote\ Desktop\ Connection.app- Note - you need to install the Oracle Extras Extension pack to be able to use RDP with a VM. If it’s too much hassle, just open the regular VirtualBox Application and do the install there. From Virtualbox downloads:
VirtualBox 4.3.12 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack All supported platforms Support for USB 2.0 devices, VirtualBox RDP and PXE boot for Intel cards.
-
Finish installing and configuring the VM from the Remote Desktop client, or the regular Non-headless Virtualbox application:
-
During the installation, create a vagrant user as an administrator user:
-
By default the firewall blocks port 22, so let’s go ahead and open that:
-
After the install is finished, it will automatically reboot and will again boot from the CD. This time around choose to boot from the Hard Drive:
This time around it will use yast to install packages:
After that’s done you will be able to login into the system as the vagrant user:
At this point you can ssh to the VM like so:
elatov@kmac:~$ssh vagrant@127.0.0.1 -p 2223
The authenticity of host '[127.0.0.1]:2223 ([127.0.0.1]:2223)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is ec:dc:c2:91:b8:4f:1d:18:a2:7b:63:a2:d2:a6:40:49.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '[127.0.0.1]:2223' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

Configure the Guest OS
There are a couple of things we need to do on the VM to prep it for Vagrant.
Add Directories with system binaries to Vagrant’s User Path
This will ease the pain of typing out the full path of the command. So let’s add /usr/sbin and /sbin to the vagrant’s user PATH. SSH into the template VM:
elatov@kmac:~$ssh vagrant@127.0.0.1 -p 2223
Password:
Last login: Tue Jun 10 12:45:42 2014 from 10.0.2.2
Have a lot of fun...
vagrant@linux-nkez:~>
And run the following to add those directories to the PATH:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> echo "export PATH=/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH" >> .profile
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> . .profile
Configure sudo for the vagrant user
First we have to make sure the vagrant use can run sudo without a password. During the install I made the vagrant user an admin so he already had sudo privileges, just not passwordless. So let’s edit the /etc/sudoers file to allow passwordless sudo commands:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo /usr/sbin/visudo
And add the following into the file:
Defaults !requiretty
vagrant ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
Now let’s install the public SSH key used by vagrant:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> mkdir .ssh
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> curl -k https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mitchellh/vagrant/master/keys/vagrant.pub > .ssh/authorized_keys
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 409 100 409 0 0 1295 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 1298
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> chmod 0700 .ssh
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> chmod 0600 .ssh/authorized_keys
Now let’s try to login with ssh and run a sudo command
elatov@kmac:~$ssh vagrant@localhost -p 2223 -i .vagrant.d/insecure_private_key 'sudo date'
Tue Jun 10 13:20:19 MDT 2014
If you get any errors fix them as they come up and make sure it doesn’t prompt you for any passwords.
Update the OS
Next go ahead and update the system:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo zypper update

will be used.
Continue? [y/n/? shows all options] (y):
After that’s done go ahead and poweroff the VM:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo /sbin/poweroff
Connection to localhost closed by remote host.
Connection to localhost closed.
Install the Latest VirtualBox Guest Additions
Then install VirtualBox Guest Additions (this is necessary if you plan to share files between VMs using the shared folders mechanism from VirtualBox). First let’s unmount the ISO that we used to install OpenSUSE with:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --dvd none
And now let’s connect the VBoxAdditions ISO:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit --dvd /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso
Then power the VM back up:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxHeadless --startvm vagrant-opensuse13-32bit
Oracle VM VirtualBox Headless Interface 4.3.12

All rights reserved.
VRDE server is listening on port 3389.
You will actually notice that by default the tools are installed:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> rpm -qa | grep virtualbox
virtualbox-guest-kmp-default-4.2.18_k3.11.10_11-2.12.1.i586
virtualbox-guest-tools-4.2.18-2.12.1.i586
virtualbox-guest-kmp-default-4.2.18_k3.11.6_4-2.2.10.i586
But they are usually a version behind:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage --version
4.3.12r93733
So the latest VirtualBox is 4.3.12, but the tools are 4.2.18. Not sure if that matters, but for experiment’s sake let’s install the latest version. First let’s remove the ones included with the OS:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo zypper rm virtualbox-guest-kmp-default virtualbox-guest-tools virtualbox-guest-x11

virtualbox-guest-kmp-default-4.2.18_k3.11.10_11-2.12.1 virtualbox-guest-tools
3 packages to remove.
After the operation, 1.6 MiB will be freed.
Continue? [y/n/? shows all options] (y): y
Next let’s install the necessary packages to compile the latest virtualbox guest additions:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo zypper in kernel-devel gcc make

be used.
Continue? [y/n/? shows all options] (y):
Now for the actual install of the guest additions, let’s mount the ISO within the opensuse VM and do the install:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo mount /dev/dvd /media
mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo /media/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Everything looks good.
Clean up References to /dev/disk/by-id
One thing I noticed was that the VM was configured to look under /dev/disk/by-id/ata-VBOX_HARDDISK_* in /etc/fstab for the /boot partition. To get around that, I labled the filesystem and configured /etc/fstab to use the label instead of the devide path. Here is the entry from /etc/fstab:
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-VBOX_HARDDISK_VBafe7c8c7-aa2f47e1-part1 /boot ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 2
To create a label for the boot partition run the following:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo e2label /dev/sda1 boot
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo e2label /dev/sda1
boot
Then modify /etc/fstab to use the label:
LABEL=boot /boot ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 2
Fix the “SMBus base address uninitialized” message
To get rid of the following message during boot:
[ 16.115174] piix4_smbus 0000:00:07.0: SMBus base address uninitialized - upgrade BIOS or use force_addr=0xaddr
Do the following, first blacklist the ic2_piix4 module, this is done by editing the /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf file:
sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf
and adding the following to it:
blacklist i2c_piix4
Then rebuild the initrd image:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo /sbin/mkinitrd
Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.10-11-default
Initrd image: /boot/initrd-3.11.10-11-default
Root device: /dev/system/root (mounted on / as ext4)
Resume device: /dev/system/swap
Kernel Modules: hwmon thermal_sys thermal processor fan dm-mod dm-log dm-region-hash dm-mirror dm-snapshot scsi_dh scsi_dh_alua scsi_dh_hp_sw scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh_rdac libata libahci ahci linear
Features: acpi dm block lvm2
To be safe, you can also rebuild grub as well (mkinitrd already does this, but just in case):
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo /usr/sbin/grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Generating grub.cfg ...

Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.6-4-default
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd-3.11.6-4-default
done
Zero out unused space
Another thing you can do is clean up all the space to make the box image smaller. Boot the VM into single user mode (append single to the linux line in grub):
Then install zerofree:
zypper install zerofree
remount / with read-only:
mount -o remount,ro /
then zero out the unused data:
zerofree -v /dev/mapper/system-root
If you don’t want to install zerofree, you can do something like this:
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/EMPTY bs=1M
dd: error writing ‘/EMPTY’: No space left on device
11358+0 records in
11357+0 records out
11909644288 bytes (12 GB) copied, 20.3938 s, 584 MB/s
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo rm -f /EMPTY
vagrant@linux-nkez:~> sudo poweroff
Then compact the virtual disk:
elatov@kmac:~$VBoxManage modifyhd .virt/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit/vagrant-opensuse13-32bit.vdi --compact
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
Then power off the VM. The above (zerofree) saved about 130MB:

zerofree vs dd was about 10MB difference.
Create a Box from the VM template
To create a box/ base image from our template VM, we can do the following:
elatov@kmac:~$mkdir vagrant-boxes
elatov@kmac:~$cd vagrant-boxes/
elatov@kmac:~/vagrant-boxes$vagrant package --output vagrant-opensuse13_1-32bit.box --base vagrant-opensuse13-32bit
==> vagrant-opensuse13-32bit: Clearing any previously set forwarded ports...
==> vagrant-opensuse13-32bit: Exporting VM...
==> vagrant-opensuse13-32bit: Compressing package to: /Users/elatov/vagrant-boxes/vagrant-opensuse13_1-32bit.box
Now let’s add the box to our local vagrant inventory:
elatov@kmac:~$vagrant box add opensuse13-32 vagrant-boxes/vagrant-opensuse13_1-32bit.box
==> box: Adding box 'opensuse13-32' (v0) for provider:
box: Downloading: file:///Users/elatov/vagrant-boxes/vagrant-opensuse13_1-32bit.box
==> box: Successfully added box 'opensuse13-32' (v0) for 'virtualbox'!
You can check the boxes that in your vagrant instance by running the following:
elatov@kmac:~$vagrant box list
hashicorp/precise32 (virtualbox, 1.0.0)
opensuse13-32 (virtualbox, 0)
Now let’s init a vm from that box:
elatov@kmac:~$mkdir new_vm
elatov@kmac:~$cd new_vm/
elatov@kmac:~/new_vm$vagrant init opensuse13-32
A `Vagrantfile` has been placed in this directory. You are now
ready to `vagrant up` your first virtual environment! Please read
the comments in the Vagrantfile as well as documentation on
`vagrantup.com` for more information on using Vagrant.
Lastly let’s power on the new VM:
elatov@kmac:~/new_vm$vagrant up
