Packer Templates

This repository contains a Packer template for building minimal Vagrant boxes based on Debian for VirtualBox (amd64). It focuses on reproducibility, fast setup, and clean structure.

Most ideas were adapted from chef/bento.

Differences from standard Debian

• single partition / ext4 (no LVM, no swap, no EFI)
• root account disabled (no password)
• vagrant user with SSH HCL public key and NOPASSWD:ALL sudo
• preinstalled VirtualBox Guest Additions
• cdrom: source removed from APT
• Temp files, machine-id, APT cache, and logs cleaned up

→ Build instructions in manual.md.

Prebuilt boxes are available on Vagrant Cloud.
