Building an own image

We could have build our own image. First creating an image using packer with https://github.com/rmoesbergen/packer-linuxmint. Then, building a Vagrantfile on top of it. Seemed to be too much issues for the users.

1. Install packer
2. packer plugins install github.com/hashicorp/virtualbox
3. packer plugins install github.com/hashicorp/vagrant
4. packer build -var-file=mint-cinnamon-22.json core_template.json
