I have somehow rather a peculiar question, but anyhow I will ask, before myself start diving and poking around, creating my own script...
And here is the deal I could not resist (I must have this idea fully implemented): does anybody know anywhere (maybe on GitHub) the script, or parts of the one, where the whole Debian Stretch (or some other Linux distro) is used for VM machine creation, but using exclusively VBox manage (CLI) commands?
For example, I start the VBox script from the command line, take off the shoes, relax, take a sip of wine, while the automated script brings/installs for me the whole Debian Stretch up on VBox, creates port forwarding from the host to VM (also by VBox manage commands), adds number of desired Debian packages, and afterwards, upon creation finished, bringing the whole VM with VBox down (leaves the newly VBox VM in shutdown state).
Anybody?
