Obviously you will need to change the VM settings to suit the VM that you are going to create.
You may also note that there is no decent error handling built in, other than the -ex parameters added to the top line.
  • -e : In this mode any command your script runs which returns a non-zero exitcode – an error in the world of shell – will cause your script to self-terminate immediately with an error.
  • -x : This will run the entire script in debug mode. Traces of each command plus its arguments are printed to standard output after the commands have been expanded but before they are executed.
As I said, I am not a bash guru. Feel free to use and modify the script to make it your own.
