VirtualBox Guest Addition

PadoGrid pods mount shared folders and therefore require the VirtualBox Guest Addition plugin installed. If the Vagrant box does not include the Guest Addition plugin then install the vbguest plugin as shown below before running the build_pod command. This plugin allows PadoGrid to automatically install the Guest Addition plugin if it is not installed.

# Install vbguest plugin
vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest

# List installed Vagrant plugins
vagrant plugin list

Unsuccessful Boxes

Box Version Size Description
debian/jessie64 8.11.1 391 MB A generic Debeian Jessie image 64-bit
generic/alpine38 v3.2.12 94 MB A generic Alpine Linux image

Debian 8.11.1

create_pod -quiet \
  -box debian/jessie64 \
  -pod debian_jessie \
  -count 2 \
  -dir /Users/dpark/Padogrid/products/linux-debian

The debian/jessie64 box does not include the Guest Addition plugin. Even after installing the vagrant-vbguest plugin as described in the previous section, unfortunately, this box fails with the following error messages.

The following SSH command responded with a non-zero exit status.
Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!
umount /mnt
Stdout from the command:
Stderr from the command:
umount: /mnt: not mounted

Generic Alpine

create_pod -quiet \
  -box generic/alpine38 \
  -pod alpine38 \
  -count 2 \
  -dir /Users/dpark/Padogrid/products/linux-alpine

create_pod -quiet \
  -box generic/alpine317 \
  -pod alpine317 \
  -count 2 \
  -dir /Users/dpark/Padogrid/products/linux-alpine

The Alpine boxes are compact and take less time to install but they mount shared folders with the root user. There is no way to change the ownership of the shared folders.
