## Updating Ubuntu

When Ubuntu releases a new point release of 16.04, the packer build will throw this error:

> ==> virtualbox-iso: error downloading ISO: [source path error: stat /path/to/devkit/iso/ubuntu-16.04.4-server-amd64.iso: no such file or directory bad response code: 404]
When this happens, you need to update to the new version:

1. Open `drupalbox/ubuntu.json`
3. Visit [releases.ubuntu.com/16.04](http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/) to find the updated values:
* `iso_name`: ubuntu-16.04.*-server-amd64.iso
* `iso_url`: http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04.*-server-amd64.iso
* `iso_checksum`: find this in the [SHA256SUMS](http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/SHA256SUMS) file for the current releases
