1. Log in to your host machine; we will start in your home directory
   • no longer as user ansible
2. Create the file install-virtualbox.yml

   • install-virtualbox.yml

     ---
     - hosts: localhost
       connection: local
       become: true
       tasks:
         - name: Add Oracle apt key
           apt_key:
             url: https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc
             state: present
         - name: Add Virtualbox repo
           apt_repository:
             repo: "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian {{ ansible_distribution_release }} contrib"
             state: present
         - name: Install Virtualbox
           apt:
             pkg:
               - virtualbox
             state: present
             update_cache: true
         - name: Ensure vboxdrv kernel module is loaded (optional)
           modprobe:
             name: vboxdrv
             state: present

3. Run the playbook you just created
   • ansible-playbook install-virtualbox.yml –ask-become-pass

You now have Virtualbox installed! Proceed to Customize user-data for Ubuntu unattended install

Or back to Install packages and create keys for Ansible management
