2. Click Packages
3. Search for and install the latexmk package
Open intro-Linux/intro-Linux.tex in TeXworks (MiKTeX' editor) and press the green "play" button. This won't actually succesfully compile, but will prompt to install all the packages we need. Click "Yes" for all packages.
To compile your document, double-click compile.bat and fill in your build details. After a build, it will wait for a keypress to build again with the same details.
