Create .vmx file during build #5

Closed enoch85 closed 9 years ago

enoch85 commented 9 years ago

When building the box a .vmx file should be created so that the user just can double-click on the appliance rather than creating a new VM and use the box-disk1.vmdk. If the .vmx doesn't exist the .vmdk can't be opened by just double-clicking.

Any ideas @jnweiger ?

I've added all docu I have about differnet formats to the convert folder. No clear idea how to generate vmx and other xml files. My hope is that one of ovftool, qemu-img convert, or VBoxManage could do that.

We now have .ovf and .vmdk output. The ovf can be used wiht VirtualBox -> import. That is much easier as VirtualBox -> create with *.vmdk.

Closing as it won´t run on VMware.
