Instructions for OSX/Fusion:

wget https://vagrantcloud.com/hashicorp/boxes/precise64/versions/1.1.0/providers/vmware_fusion.box
# For some reason, the downloaded filename was set to an uuid
# mv  vmware_fusion.box
vagrant box add hashicorp/precise64 vmware_fusion.box
cd vagrant.d/boxes/hashicorp-VAGRANTSLASH-precise64
mv 0 1.1.0
echo -n "https://app.vagrantup.com/hashicorp/boxes/precise64" > metadata_url
vagrant box list
