The setup instructions are simple, once you have installed the prereqs, clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/coolsvap/vagrant-kata-dev

Edit the Vagrantfile to update details

1. Update the bridge interface so the box will have IP address from your local network using DHCP. If you do not update, it will ask for the interface name you start machine.
2. Update the golang version, currently its at 1.9.3

Create the vagrant box with following command

vagrant up

Once the box is started, login to the box using following command

vagrant ssh

Switch to root user and move to vagrant shared directory and install the setup script

sudo su
cd /vagrant
