Question from smartos noobie that have not touched vagrant for long time: when I add smartos box (either created by @aszeszo (smartos163) or @benr), all I get is an error 'Failed to untar the box file' and bunch of utter gibberish in ~/.vagrant.d/boxes/smartos directory. Tried on 2 different hosts (mac os x and ubuntu), same result. Added ubuntu box at the same time with great results. What am I doing wrong?

^--- what @olex said. @Aszezo do you have those scripts in version control somewhere so that we can clone/contribute?

@olek - fwiw, a common pitfall with vagrant is using the one from rubygems rather than vagrant downloaded from http://downloads.vagrantup.com/. I was able to successfully import @aszeso's base191-64 box, although I'm still unable to get it to respond to SSH.

Is this the right place to watch? https://github.com/jacobgroundwater/vagrant-smartos

I've automated the process of making new SmartOS vboxes ("Vagrant SmartMachines" as well) using vbkick (https://github.com/wilas/vbkick) and @aszeszo script. Template is available here: https://github.com/wilas/vbkick-template-smartos
Note: It support booting SmartOS from USB or ISO.
