You need to set debian-cd's DISKTYPE variable to a size appropriate for
you.
In https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-cd/debian-cd.git/tree/CONF.sh
you'll find:
# Set your disk type here. Known types are:
# BC (businesscard): 650 MiB max (should be limited elsewhere,
# should never fill a CD anyway)
# NETINST: 650 MiB max (ditto)
# CD: standard 74-min CD (650 MiB)
# CD700: (semi-)standard 80-min CD (700 MiB)
# DVD: standard 4.7 GB DVD
# DLDVD: standard 8.5 GB dual-layer DVD
# BD: standard 25 GB blu-ray
# DLBD: standard 50 GB dual-layer blu-ray
# STICK1GB: 1GB USB stick or similar
# STICK2GB: 2GB USB stick or similar
# STICK4GB: 4GB USB stick or similar
# STICK8GB: 8GB USB stick or similar
# CUSTOM: up to you - specify a size to go with it (in 2K blocks)
export DISKTYPE=CD
So, you can add this to any of your profile/*.conf files that you use
for building the image.
live well,
vagrant
