This repository is analagous to the one that is used for Mac OSX workstation automation. Of course there are going to be some subtle differences because of the platform differences.
Here's my primary influence.
Thanks Rich Turner for your excellent example!
Launch Powershell with elevated privileges:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
. { iwr -useb https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1 } | iex; get-boxstarter -Force
Install-BoxstarterPackage -DisableReboots -PackageName https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scottmuc/windows-homedir/master/boxstarter.txt
Post bootstrap TODO
- Change windows performance settings to only have font smoothing enabled
- Need to add documentation on how to setup the bootable USB drive as it required some BIOS setting tweaks and downloading of drivers from dell.com
- Once install completed had to run the installer for the WiFi drivers
- Performed a complete Windows update
- Need up adjust KB and language as my laptop is from Dell Ireland but I still type as if I have a US QWERTY layout
- Need to install Boxstarter first before the other things
- Create ssh key on separate machine first and put on the repave USB stick
- Went smoothly with the ssh keys transfered from previous build as well as the boxstarter downoad
- Set the task bar config plus more Explorer config in the boxstarter.txt
