CentOS-7 Minimal Box

This provides the configuration to build a Vagrant minimal box using Packer. The box is intended for server (terminal) use only which allows for a smaller box size.

There is a template provided for the CentOS-7 x86_64 architecture.

Usage Instructions

Prerequisites

The build environment required is Mac OSX or GNU Linux.

To build the box file you will need the following installed:

ISO

It is assumed that you have downloaded the CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-2003.iso and placed it in the packer-centos directory as CentOS-7-x64-Minimal.iso.

Alternatively, you may edit the iso_url in the CentOS-7-x64.json which is the packer template file:

For instance; "iso_url": "http://mirror.ucu.ac.ug/centos/7.8.2003/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-2003.iso"
