We are pleased to announce new official Vagrant images of CentOS Linux 6.10 and CentOS Linux 7.8.2003 for x86_64. All included packages have been updated to May 30th, 2019.
We are unfortunately not able to create images for CentOS 8.x om our build infrastructure at this time, but are working on this.
config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", type: "virtualbox"
We recommend using NFS instead of VirtualBox shared folders if possible; you can also use the vagrant-sshfs plugin, which, unlike NFS, works on all operating systems.
config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", disabled: true
to their Vagrantfile, to prevent errors on "vagrant up".
vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnshostresolver1", "off"]
Our automatic testing is running on a CentOS Linux 7 host, using Vagrant 1.9.4 with vagrant-libvirt and VirtualBox 5.1.20 (without the Guest Additions) as providers. We strongly recommend using the libvirt provider when stability is required.
The official images can be downloaded from Vagrant Cloud. We provide images for HyperV, libvirt-kvm, VirtualBox and VMware.
If you never used our images before:
vagrant box add centos/6 # for CentOS Linux 6, or... vagrant box add centos/7 # for CentOS Linux 7
Existing users can upgrade their images:
vagrant box update --box centos/6 vagrant box update --box centos/7
The SHA256 checksums of the images are signed with the CentOS 7 Official Signing Key. First, download and verify the checksum file:
$ curl http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/vagrant/x86_64/images/sha256sum.txt.asc -o sha256sum.txt.asc $ gpg --verify sha256sum.txt.asc
Once you are sure that the checksums are properly signed by the CentOS Project, you have to include them in your Vagrantfile (Vagrant unfortunately ignores the checksum provided from the command line). Here's the relevant snippet from my own Vagrantfile, using v1803.01 and VirtualBox:
Vagrant.configure(2) do |config| config.vm.box = "centos/7" config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |virtualbox, override| virtualbox.memory = 1024 override.vm.box_download_checksum_type = "sha256" override.vm.box_download_checksum = "b24c912b136d2aa9b7b94fc2689b2001c8d04280cf25983123e45b6a52693fb3" override.vm.box_url = "https://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/vagrant/x86_64/images/CentOS-7-x86_64-Vagrant-1803_01.VirtualBox.box" end end
If you encounter any unexpected issues with the Vagrant images, feel free to ask on the centos-devel mailing list, or in #centos on Freenode IRC.
I would like to warmly thank Brian Stinson, Fabian Arrotin and Thomas Oulevey for their work on the build infrastructure, as well as Patrick Lang from Microsoft for testing and feedback on the Hyper-V images. I would also like to thank the CentOS Project Lead, Karanbir Singh, without whose years of continuous support we wouldn't have had the Vagrant images in their present form.
I would also like to thank the following people (in alphabetical order):
I have downloaded the box file and initialized four vms using vagrant, but how setup the passwordless ssh login?
i confused me for a while.

I know I've got centos/7 vagrant working before but I've just tried today and am getting an error, with this setup;
- Vagrant 2.2.14
- VirtualBox 6.1.16
- MacOS 10.15.7
Output;
`
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
`
For Vagrantfile and the full output see https://gist.github.com/nhojpatrick/6a8284fe85ce5d6f30762ac525e418c1
The vm does start, but I want to automatically run an ansible scripts upon creation but this error prevents that 2nd step.
Did you create an issue for this?
