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.
