I followed the given instructions on my MacOSX 10.15.7 following brew installs of vagrant and virtualbox, but running vagrant up resulted in

Timed out while waiting for the machine to boot. This means that Vagrant was unable to communicate with the guest machine within the configured ("config.vm.boot_timeout" value) time period.
I cannot find any config.vm.boot_timeout in Vagrantfile
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Checking if box 'debian/bookworm64' version '12.20240212.1' is up to date...

almost immediately. Looks like timing out was not the real issue. I can run vagrant ssh now.
Realizing there's no cc and no git, I try
$ apt-get update
Reading package lists... Done
