[Nix-dev] DNS fails during nixos-install in Virtualbox

I would like to gently bump this issue:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/6066

I'm currently assigned the project to explore the possibility of replacing
all our Puppet+Ubuntu infrastructure with NixOS at my work.

We heavily use Vagrant for our configuration management development, so my
first logical step was to create a Vagrant base image.

My goal is to create an automatically updating NixOS Vagrant image to host
and maintain on vagrantcloud.

The issue is very easy to replicate. Just download the repo and run make
(it does take a while though).

I can't really make sense of what could be causing this. DNS works as soon
as the nixos-install process finishes.

A rerun of nixos-install after the failure allows the installation to
finish, but I suspect it's not actually a successful install.

Best Regards,
