We've got it down to running a script twice and rebooting once then installing your VM. I'm hoping we can simplify a bit further with time. :)

  Oh you do? Nice! Is the script linked? One concern I had was having to uninstall the Nvidia drivers and used the patched ones?. How does that play with pkg manager updates and things?

    Ya! It's in the install guide. Most package updates don't disrupt anything. Depending on the vendor driver you use (Intel i915, AMD GPU-IOV Module, Nvidia) kernel updates should be okay if we use DKMS. GPU-IOV Module works okay with DKMS if you know what you're doing. I can't speak too much to i915. On Nvidia DKMS is hit or miss but that depends on which driver version is used. Some folks report DKMS doesn't work at all, others say they've never had a problem with it. I think it also depends on the kernel version DKMS is compiling against as in some cases the driver hasn't been updated yet to support the latest kernel version. We try to help with that by making patch files that run ahead of official driver/kernel version support (they basically just make the driver work on a newer kernel - that's all): https://github.com/Arc-Compute/LibVF.IO/tree/master/patches/ https://github.com/Arc-Compute/LibVF.IO/tree/master/patches/

      That’s fantastic. Great work by the team. Maybe I’ll find another partition to try this out on.
