​
the errors are for the "private_network" branch[0], that has netctl
installed.

i now also updated that branch[0] with following:

- install dhcpcd and `systemctl enable dhcpcd`
  - generates same error

- add "PermitRootLogin yes" in sshd_config
  - generates same error
  - (i thought vagrant does everything through vagrant user and sudo)

- install vboxservice and `systemctl enable vboxservice`
  - generates same error
  - (i gathered from vbox wiki page[1] that we dont need to enable
vboxservice anymore)

- disable systemd-networkd and systemd-resolved and setup netctl
  - generates same error
  - (would still love to use systemd-networkd instead;P)

- disable dhcpcd service
  - generates same error
  - (i assumed from netctl wiki page[2] that we dont need to manually
enable/start dhcpcd, cause it does not mention it)

i would be curious to see what the output of `ip a` looks like on a working
client with private_network. cause somehow vagrant here is not finding the
one it wants, and tries to start netctl without device/profile name?:

"Failed to restart netctl at .service: Unit name netctl at .service is missing
the instance name."

i guess i'll try to findout what exactly vagrant is trying to find/do.
