• Install Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM)

echo y | android update sdk --no-ui --all --force --filter �extra-intel-Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager

• Reboot.

To verify that Intel HAXM is running, open a terminal window and execute the following command:

kextstat | grep intel

To stop or start Intel HAXM, use the following commands:

Stop:

sudo kextunload –b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm

Start:

sudo kextload –b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm

To uninstall Intel HAXM, open a terminal window and execute this command:

• keys - private keys
• builds - final output of build process
• http - config folder that is used by Packer to into a webserver to be used during build
• scripts - post installation scripts to be ran on the vms
• settings - additional setting for diffrent modes
• template-rhel.json - Packer template for RHEL build

When you change ISO files you need to specify the checksum to generate a new one run this command

openssl sha1 path/to/file

create encrypted password for kickstarter file

# md5
openssl passwd -1 "password here"

or

# sha512
echo "password here" | openssl dgst -sha512

Default VRDP port is 5901, while build is running you can watch the process by use any RDP tool, ex CoRD, by connecting to 127.0.0.1:5901.

OR

Video record for creation is enabled and files are stored in build/sessions directory, you can watch the .webm file for your headless installation process
