Building solaris 11-2 - not working so far #2

Closed nicferrier closed 9 years ago

nicferrier commented 9 years ago

I'm doing a virtualbox build of the 11-2 packer.

A cursory glance suggests that it's not even selecting the language properly, the:

27<enter>

doesn't result in US-English being selected.

Do you have more info. Like versions of packer, vagrant, VirtualBox, what host OS? I have built a new baseboard recently and but i suspect with with the frequence of changes of all of these there are some potential issues. The biggest issue is a lot of this is thinking dependant and if VirtualBox is too slow, or to fast too boot then you will have issues. For example if I tried to build 2 baselines at once one would often not work.

Host OS: Ubuntu. Vagrant: 1.6.3 Packer: 0.7.5 VirtualBox: 4.3.10_Ubuntur93012

I wasn't trying to do anything clever. It didn't seem to be a speed thing. It was just not selecting what the script said. I've happily installed solaris 11.2 via the same media as a virtualbox image on this machine... it was just the script driving that didn't work.
