packer-freebsd

packer template to build FreeBSD (with zfsroot) images, based on the work by uchida/packer-freebsd.

Vagrant images are available at

• app.vagrantup.com/stblassitude/freebsd-10 (about 310 MB)
• app.vagrantup.com/stblassitude/freebsd-11 (about 260 MB)

vagrant init stblassitude/freebsd-11; vagrant up

I'm running the build regularly (every couple of weeks to once a month). To use the most recent image, update your local cache before you vagrant up a new box.

vagrant box update stblassitude/freebsd-11

To check which version your Vagrant box is based on, you can look at /root/vagrantbox-version, which contains the URL and version number of the box vagrant up was run with.

Building Images

To build images, simply run:

$ git clone https://github.com/stblassitude/packer-freebsd
$ cd packer-freebsd
$ ./build.sh

While the template and the build script support VirtualBox, VMware, and QEMU/KVM, I'm currently only building VirtualBox images. If you'd like me to build the others as well, drop me a line.
