Rocky Anaconda Dev Box

A Vagrant box built to work directly on Anaconda.

Requirements

• Vagrant
• A hypervisor (i.e. libvirt, hyper-v, virtualbox)
• vagrant-rsync-back

Installation & Usage

To use this, first ensure you have met the requirements described above. Then, run vagrant up -- a CentOS 8 box will be provisioned & created for you.

Next, you need to initialize the Anaconda environment.

$ vagrant rsync-back

This command will pull the files found in /usr/share/anaconda into the anaconda/ directory.

You should now be able to edit the Anaconda files and push them back to the VM with the following command:

$ vagrant rsync

Now, you should be able to run the following to start a Anaconda in headless mode, which will make the installer available on VNC (vnc://localhost:5901).

$ vagrant ssh -c 'anaconda --vnc'
