VirtualBox 5.1.2 Paravirtualization stuck to Legacy, have to manually set it to KVM

[Bruno Vernay]

Hi,

I am trying to build a Fedora 24 VirtualBox-ISO guest on a Fedora 23 host.

It looks like it works, but the Network cable are "disconnected" and the paravirt is "Legacy".

I have to launch VirtualBox GUI to set the paravirtualization to "KVM" for things to work.

I am installing the Guest Addition and it works.

I tried various export option --ovf10 ovf20, but without success.  https://github.com/BrunoVernay/VM-images-packer/blob/master/vb-fedora-24.json

I am using VirtualBox 5.1.2  and Packer 0.10.1

Any hint? or things I could try ?

Thanks

Bruno

Adding ["modifyvm", "{{.Name}}", "--paravirtprovider", "kvm"]

makes it a KVM, not Legacy anymore. Good

But the cable are still disconnected ...
