Hi Abhi,

The code to automate devcloud building never had worked for me which
is why the last one I had published by created by hand [1]. At the
time last year there was some issue with Ubuntu, so Debian instead was
used. I can help create new version of DevCloud based on the same [1].
I guess before building devcloud using vagrant you need to build a
basebox based on the distro (ubuntu in this case) and then use that to
create xenbox (looking at the code), checkout boxer.sh as well.

I hope if we can use packer [2] which is a newer/better/faster way to
build appliances, I think if you have a running VM one should be able
to deploy on it using puppet configs in the dir (assuming the puppet
stuff is fixed and works). Earlier I had created a skeletal automation
infra based on (masterless) puppet and fabric which sets up a server
for some config and does not assume if that is a VM or baremetal but
that you've root/admin level access, I think this could be useful for
anyone who wants to setup infra in this way [3].
