I speed-run every install; how else would I improve anything about it? :p https://wiki.realmofespionage.xyz/distros:fedora_workstation_gnome https://wiki.realm

Fresh Fedora installs involve me opening Terminal, Firefox, going to that page, and copy/pasting commands. I can reproduce my set-up in less than an hour.
- b5n 3y agoFor physical machines I maintain a debian preseed that runs an ansible playbook post install. Install + setup is fully unattended and generally takes about 15 minutes. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed Quite different than bootstrapping a system as described in the OP, but relevant in the context of your comment.
- duckmysick 3y agoI don't have an unattended install, but I do have a post install script I wrote in pyinfra. Mostly sets up repos, installs packages, does some basic configuration. But also calls a bash script that sets up KDE/Gnome, down to the launcher icons, widgets, themes, a wallpaper, and application settings. Basically "cattle not pets" approach to workstations and laptops. The only thing I struggle with are Firefox extensions. The last time I checked automating them was such a drag. Surprised there's nothing like apt or dnf for them. https://pyinfra.com/ https://pyinfra.com/ https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37728865/install-webextensions-on-firefox-from-the-command-line https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37728865/install-webexte...
