Install Ubuntu Desktop in Virtualbox

My idea was to use Vagrant to install and start Ubuntu Desktop. First step is to downloaded Vagrant and then start command line and move into new empty directory.  Next step is to download Ubuntu server

vagrant box add ubuntu64-13.04 http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/vagrant/saucy/current/saucy-server-
cloudimg-amd64-vagrant-disk1.box

and start it

vagrant init ubuntu64-13.04
vagrant it


ssh into new server and install graphical user interface


vagrant ssh
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

allow graphical user interface in configuration file Vagrant


config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
  vb.gui = true
  vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"]
end

restart the system


vagrant reload

Actually it came out that Ubuntu Desktop graphics is really slooow, so I give up and started install Ubuntu Desktop without Vargant from scratch. Lesson that I learned today: dont use hammer when you have screws. Vargant is not meant to use with graphical desktop.
