RHEL 6.3 veewee templates for vagrant use

These templates can be used to feed to veewee to spin up an el6 basebox for use with vagrant.

There are some coded values in definition.rb and ks.cfg which point at Yale-ishness. Amend to point at local RHEL iso/yum repo.

Built successfully with veewee 0.2.3, vagrant 1.0.3, Virtualbox 4.1.18.

Config Management

• chef via gem install
• puppet via puppetlabs repo
• cfengine3 via cfengine repo

Use this

$ git clone git://gist.github.com/3091190.git definitions/RHEL-6.3-x86_64`
$ vagrant basebox build 'RHEL-6.3-x86_64'

It works

[vagrant@localhost ~]$ chef-solo --version
Chef: 10.12.0
[vagrant@localhost ~]$ puppet --version
2.7.18
[vagrant@localhost ~]$ cf-agent -V
