Bash script for automatic installation of most commonly used programs on my Ubuntu virtual machines
When installing a new virtual machine with Ubuntu it usually takes some time to manually install all of the programs I need on the machine. This simple script is intended to automate this process.
After the first restart when Ubuntu has been installed on the virtual machine, install git and clone this repository to somewhere on the computer. From there the script can be executed
$git clone https://github.com/slentzen/UbuntuAutoinstall.git
$cd UbuntuAutoinstall
$sudo sh ./UbuntuAutoinstall.sh
NB: Script has only been developed for personal use, so use at your own risk, and only on a virtual machine where catastrophic failures can be tolerated.
