Hey friends!

Alpine is such a great and robust distro, so I decide to make all my *nix-work around it.
I make websites on my PC (vagrant) and deploy it to Digital Ocean servers.

And I have problems with creating box to Vagrant: stuck on step

apt-get install build-essential linux-header-generic dkms

Needed to compile and install VirtualBox Guest Additions (to mount folders, etc).

What packages should I install by apk to install Guest Additions dependencies? Or that process is not easy as pie with Alpine?
Maybe I doing this wrogn at all?

Thanks for any help!
(Sorry for my bad English)

P.S. Does Alpine have apk package for beanstalkd?

apt-get is ubuntu, the equal in Alpine is apk add alpine-sdk

More detail can reference:

Or if you just want to having a try Alpine in vagrant only, using my box (I already spent 2 days on it, hoping can save your time):

Oh, thank you very much, Eric!

Really appreciate you for creating box, very interesting to play with it.

Little sad cause in 5 years situation with native support of Alpine in VBox stuck in dead point :(
