I'm trying to build && export a box for Ubuntu 12.04.5.
I have the .iso and I have built a VM by hand though the graphical UI of VirtualBox several times before.
I'm a new user of veewee, but I think I understand how to use it.

First try:

These are my steps:

bundle exec veewee vbox define 'ubu_12045_v4' 'ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-amd64'
bundle exec veewee vbox build --force --nogui 'ubu_12045_v4'

At this point, the output looks normal but it times out after the "Done typing." message. The full output is below at (*1).
I execute the "export" anyway as:

bundle exec veewee vbox export 'ubu_12045_v4'

but it waits forever:

$ bundle exec veewee vbox export 'ubu12.04.5_v4'
Vagrant requires the box to be shutdown, before it can export
Sudo also needs to work for user vagrant
Performing a clean shutdown now.
Waiting for ssh login on 127.0.0.1 with user vagrant to sshd on port => 7222 to work, timeout=10000 sec
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Of course, I edited the :iso_file in the definition.rb so it matches my .iso filename.

Second try:

I was wondering why the "ssh login" waited forever, so I executed ifconfig in my host to check if any vbox* interface was present: there was not.
So I figured maybe some network configuration was missing.
By looking at other VMs I already have, I tried to catch their network settings into my definition.rb file.
So I executed again the vbox define (with another definition name), and then added some parameters in the definition.rb file:

  :virtualbox => {
      :vm_options => [
          'pae' => 'off',
          'nic2' => 'hostonly',
          'hostonlyadapter2' => 'vboxnet0'
      ]}

While the vbox build was executing, I saw the vbox* interface in my host, by I couldn't login with ssh yet (using 22 and 7222 port number).
The full output of the vbox build is below in (*2).

Thanks in advance!!

If you doubleclick the VM from the VirtualBox window, you can open the GUI. What does the screen say while it's waiting for a request of preseed.cfg?

so I just reproduced the above, and then checked the GUI right after the "Done typing." message, and I get this:

veewee__done_typing

It stays that way even after the stacktrace output.

Hi again,
So after I shutdown the VM above, I start it again to see if anything was configured anyway.
After I start it in graphical mode, I get the installation window, like the OS never got installed in the above procedure.

Is it possible that the boot_cmd_sequence is missing something? (my keyboard layout is spanish, can it be an issue?). This is my boot_cmd_sequence in the definition.rb:

:boot_cmd_sequence => [
'<Esc><Esc><Enter>',
'/install/vmlinuz noapic preseed/url=http://%IP%:%PORT%/preseed.cfg ',
'debian-installer=en_US auto locale=en_US kbd-chooser/method=us ',
'hostname=%NAME% ',
'fb=false debconf/frontend=noninteractive ',
'keyboard-configuration/modelcode=SKIP keyboard-configuration/layout=USA keyboard-configuration/variant=USA console-setup/ask_detect=false ',
'initrd=/install/initrd.gz -- <Enter>'
],
