Re: Unattended Guest OS Install - vbox-unattended
Posted: 6. Dec 2014, 23:01
Quick install instructions: (for Linux hosts)
*. Install 2 more dependencies: "mtools" and "7-zip"
*. Compile VBox and do kmk packing (and install this package)
*.Make sure you have this file in this path:
/opt/VirtualBox/additions/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso
*.Make sure you copy "vbox-unattended/" folder into: /opt/VirtualBox/
v0.8-alpha2: (6.Dec.2014)
-Updated for VirtualBox 4.3.x (patch 0.7.x was targeting VirtualBox 4.1.x)
-Fixed VBoxAdditions installer.
-Fixed creating unattended VM as part of group.
-Found Limitation: I support only one-level group. (no such problem existed for VirtualBox 4.1.x)
-Moved "IMachine->SetBootOrder()" from GUI into IUnattended backend, where it belongs.
-Several small fixes.
-Added 2 COM interfaces: IUnattended::vboxAdditionsIsoPath and IUnattended::group
