nested

With this Vagrant environment you can build for other hypervisors in a nested VMware VM. Or you can have a look at the provision scripts how to install all tools needed on bare metal.

Preparation

On your host with VMware.

Build the Windows 10 VMware base box

Build the Windows 10 base box for VMware Fusion/Workstation with 100GByte disk size.

cd ..
packer build --only=vmware-iso -var disk_size=102400 windows_10.json
vagrant box add windows_10 windows_10_vmware.box

Hyper-V

Now build the Vagrant environment with Hyper-V and packer in a Windows 10 VM.

cd nested
vagrant up hyperv

Build a Hyper-V Vagrant box

In the nested Windows 10 VM with Hyper-V first create an external virtual switch in Hyper-V Manager. Then you can run Packer builds.

cd C:\Users\vagrant\packer-windows
packer build --only=hyperv-iso --var hyperv_switchname=ext windows_2016_docker.iso

You can copy the boxes produced back to C:\vagrant folder that is a shared folder of the host.

Run the Hyper-V VM in Windows 10

vagrant box add windows_2016_docker windows_2016_docker_hyperv.box
cd C:\Users\vagrant
git clone https://github.com/StefanScherer/docker-windows-box
cd docker-windows-box
vagrant up

VirtualBox

Now build the Vagrant environment with VirtualBox and packer in a Windows 10 VM.

cd nested
vagrant up virtualbox

Build a VirtualBox Vagrant box

In the nested Windows 10 VM with VirtualBox installed you can run Packer builds.

cd C:\Users\vagrant\packer-windows
packer build --only=virtualbox-iso windows_2016_docker.iso

You can copy the boxes produced back to C:\vagrant folder that is a shared folder of the host.

Run the VirtualBox VM in Windows 10

vagrant box add windows_2016_docker windows_2016_docker_virtualbox.box
cd C:\Users\vagrant
git clone https://github.com/StefanScherer/docker-windows-box
cd docker-windows-box
vagrant up
