This is not your normal Bento box. Instead of building a system from an ISO we're building a system from an Amazon provided VirtualBox VDI file. This means the process is a bit different than usual.

## Building this box
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Download the VirtualBox .vdi file for Amazon Linux 2 and place it in the same directory as this readme file. Amazon hosts these at https://cdn.amazonlinux.com/os-images/latest/virtualbox/. Make sure to name it amazon.vdi instead of the version specific name that Amazon gives it on their site.
|
||
|
|
2. Run the STEP1_build_ovf.sh script to prepare this VDI file for packer and export it as a OVF file.
|
||
|
|
3. Run packer: bento build packer_templates/amazonlinux/amazon-2-x86_64.json
|
||
|
|
4. OPTIONAL: Cleanup the leftover files in the directory
