@aszeszo, @benr, this is great. at wanelo we want to look into letting veewee automate the process of making new smartos boxes

Question from smartos noobie that have not touched vagrant for long time: when I add smartos box (either created by @aszeszo (smartos163) or @benr), all I get is an error 'Failed to untar the box file' and bunch of utter gibberish in ~/.vagrant.d/boxes/smartos directory. Tried on 2 different hosts (mac os x and ubuntu), same result. Added ubuntu box at the same time with great results. What am I doing wrong?

^--- what @olex said. @Aszezo do you have those scripts in version control somewhere so that we can clone/contribute?

@olek - fwiw, a common pitfall with vagrant is using the one from rubygems rather than vagrant downloaded from http://downloads.vagrantup.com/. I was able to successfully import @aszeso's base191-64 box, although I'm still unable to get it to respond to SSH.

Is this the right place to watch? https://github.com/jacobgroundwater/vagrant-smartos

I've automated the process of making new SmartOS vboxes ("Vagrant SmartMachines" as well) using vbkick (https://github.com/wilas/vbkick) and @aszeszo script. Template is available here: https://github.com/wilas/vbkick-template-smartos
Note: It support booting SmartOS from USB or ISO.
