Tested and working under
- VirtualBox 5.1.22 r115126
- Host: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (Trusty)
- Guest: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (Trusty)
Shell scripts and preseed files to
- create an Ubuntu .iso image,
- create a Virtualbox machine,
- install Trusty Tahr mostly unattended (automatic).
This git
- creates a custom LVM partitioning scheme
- invokes a shell-script after the installation for additional configuration.
To use:
- It is a cyclic process, so you can start anywhere, but the entry details change each place.
- This is code for one of my projects. You will have to wade through lots of path names and the like and localize them to your project.
- You are welcome to make a branch named "vanilla" that isn't infused with my project.
- Be sure you can ssh into "host" This installation can run on "host" or anywhere else. The resulting VirtualBox will be hosted on "host"
- export EPOCH=
date '+%s' - create ~/project/$EPOCH
- cp -p 001-createVM-14.04.5.sh ~/project/$EPOCH/
- cp <any.trusty.14.04.5.iso> ~/project/$EPOCH/ubuntu-14.04.5-iounote-$thisEpoch-amd64.iso
- ./001-createVM-14.04.5.sh
To do: Make it more generic. This is best done by someone who is adapting it for themself.
