The latest version of Debian is version 10, codenamed Buster. You can read about them on the Debian wiki, and look at the provided boxes on. The Debian project provides standard Vagrant boxes in the Vagrant Cloud box catalog. If you know what you’re doing, and you want to skip all the explanations and just see the steps involved, feel free to look at my summary! Debian’s Vagrant Box In the third post, I give the steps that I use to set up a GUI. In my second post, I describe the steps I use to set up VirtualBox’s Guest Additions, so that I can share files between my host Windows system and my Debian Vagrant box. In this first post, I detail the steps that I use to create a basic Debian box, with no GUI.

I’ll write three posts about how I set it up. It’s nice and easy to set up, and if I want to restart with a clean installation of Debian, it’s very easy to do. In Vagrant, I set up a Debian box and do my development on that. Lately, for my Linux development, I’ve been using Vagrant, using VirtualBox as a provider. Some of your error messages may be different, though… Thankfully, nothing changed but the name of the Vagrant box to use! If you still want to use Stretch, replace everywhere that it says stretch64 with buster64. Update on July 23, 2019: Since the time I originally made this post, Debian has moved from version 9.6 Stretch to 10.0 Buster. “ Debian-OpenLogo” by Ebrahim is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0
