Unattended ubuntu server 13.04 install

[mhlavac]

Script for unattended install of ubuntu server 13.04 must be created. This will allow us to create a new image of Ubuntu without a need to relay on any of existing box.

Users will be able to look if everything is ok and if they do not trust our .ova or vagrant box download they can create their own.

All that will be needed is to run lamp-install-script on this newly created virtual box ubuntu server 13.04 appliance.

Vagrant boxes will require a little more work as it must follow vagrant box rules. Anyway, final vagrant box should come with everything already installed as it takes longer and longer to provision the box.

Ubuntu 13.04 unattended install could be moved to it's own repo as it can be used outside of LAMP as well. I'll have to look something up as something like this might already exist.

Vagrant somehow solved itself with official ubuntu boxes

• Official Ubuntu 12.10 daily Cloud Image i386 (No Guest Additions)
  • http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/quantal/current/quantal-server-cloudimg-vagrant-i386-disk1.box
  • 299M
• Official Ubuntu 13.04 daily Cloud Image amd64 (Development release, No Guest Additions)
  • http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/raring/current/raring-server-cloudimg-vagrant-amd64-disk1.box
  • 295M

We can export virtualbox ova appliance from virtual machine created by vagrant.

@tomas-pecserke What do you think? This would allow us to automatically test LAMP and creating automatic process for distributing .ova and .box files with every version of LAMP.

I already use these releases for quite some time now, and I'm quite content using it. We'll have to export at least 2 versions per image thou - they are not optimized for VirtualBox and are very slow under it. Optimization is simple, but nevertheless we should have VirtualBox-optimized version too.
