I tried to work with these.

It worked, but the installer phase is not built for automation.
Trying to run the installation by script is too complex to fit into an 
automated test.
I couldn't make my manual install competent or trustworthy enough that 
I'd expect any third party to actually want to use that; I believe 
that's one of the major advantages that using Vagrant gets you: You 
don't have to worry about getting the install right for all the 
variations that come with OS and installer version, networking setup, 
locale, and whatnot.
