    Following the
vagrant documentation
to create a new base box running Ubuntu 12.04 and Puppet requires to
do a lot of single steps.  Using this simple guide may help you to go
through these steps much faster.
Prerequisites

You will need to install a current version of
VirtualBox and vagrant:
gem install vagrant
You should also download
Ubuntu 12.04 and simply
create an Ubuntu virtual machine in VirtualBox.
Use the following convention during this process:

Hostname: vagrant-ubuntu-precise
Domain: vagrantup.com
Main account login: vagrant
Main account password: vagrant

Install guest additions

Once your virtual machine is created, start it and log in as user vagrant.
Use VirtualBox' Device menue to install the guest additions and run
the following command:
curl https://gist.github.com/jehrhardt/4721006/raw/911334507ff0f0f2f88b4fb5d62e64a54a3c2675/setup_guest_additions.sh | sudo sh
Setup the virtual machine including Puppet

There are some basics, that need to be done on the virtual
machine. Most of them can be automated using this command:
curl https://gist.github.com/jehrhardt/4721006/raw/911334507ff0f0f2f88b4fb5d62e64a54a3c2675/setup_vm.sh | sudo sh
The last manual step is to fix the sudoers list.
sudo su
visudo
Find the line starting with %admin, replace it with %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL and add the line Defaults env_keep="SSH_AUTH_SOCK" in the section, where Defaults are
defined.
