Problem while Installing The Homestead Vagrant Box

I'm using ubuntu 14.04, and I'm trying to setup larave/Homestead. But while installing Homestead Vagrant Box I lost internet connection in middle, later on I tried to reinstall it using '$ vagrant box add laravel/homestead' command line, but it prompts following errors while reinstalling.

1) virtualbox
2) vmware_desktop

Enter your choice: 1
==> box: Adding box 'laravel/homestead' (v0.3.3) for provider: virtualbox
    box: Downloading: https://atlas.hashicorp.com/laravel/boxes/homestead/versions/0.3.3/providers/virtualbox.box
==> box: Box download is resuming from prior download progress
An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error
message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try
again.

HTTP server doesn't seem to support byte ranges. Cannot resume.

I tried reinstalling vagrant but this didn't work.

You need to clear the temporary files generated by Vagrant.

This can be achieved in three ways:

  1. Force Clean Install

    Add a parameter --clean as such $ vagrant box add laravel/homestead --clean

  2. Manual Deletion

    Navigate manually to vagrants temporary folder, by hitting cmd+space and typing ~/.vagrant.d/tmp/, and remove files located there.

  3. Terminal

    Open the terminal and remove the temporary files generated by vagrant:

    rm ~/.vagrant.d/tmp/*

The easiest option is to force the installer to clean the old files, so you just need to use this command

$ vagrant box add laravel/homestead --clean

Thanks @Nicklas for your quick response. But I solved it adding '-c' flag at end.

$ vagrant box add laravel/homestead -c

This removed files associated with it allocated in .vagrant.d/tmp/
