Make ethernet0.virtualDev configurable

Closed this issue · 4 comments

When trying to use this driver with boot2docker.iso it fails because the network hardware emulator doesn't appear to be supported.

When trying to use packer instead to create the vm for me, I discovered that it only works if I set:

"ethernet0.virtualDev": "e1000"

I'm guessing the drivers needed for vmware are not included in boot2docker, or are out-of-date for Workstation 15 so vmxnet3 doesn't work.

I'm using VMWare Workstation Pro 15, Windows, boot2docker 18.09 and docker-machine 0.14.0, build 89b8332

Or maybe this needs to be fixed in boot2docker? boot2docker/boot2docker#1340

It seems it needs to be fixed in boot2docker, I've commented in boot2docker/boot2docker#1345

For me removing and then adding a new NAT adapter also works for some reason..
Does folder sharing work for you?
(Is there any /Users folder?)

The initial cause has been resolved with changes to boot2docker cf. boot2docker/boot2docker#1350
