Install Ubuntu in 30 minutes

This is a simple guide for installing ubuntu in 30 minutes (using a predefined environment).

Preparations

  1. Download this repository and customize the scripts if needed (ppas, debconf seed, packages)
  2. Backup your data, home directory, settings, etc (Use a software like unison or backintime for regular backups)

Installation

  1. Install your choice of Ubuntu version (LTS recommended, currently: Trusty Tahr)
  2. Restore your home directory backup (Note: if you customized your .bashrc script opening a terminal will likely show some errors (executables not present, etc). For the time being you can just ignore them.)
  3. Execute ppas.sh to install PPAs
  4. Execute repositories.sh to install Insync and Virtualbox repositories
  5. Execute install.sh

Configuration

You need to/can do some further settings to make the system work properly:

  • Execute settings/nemo.sh to set it as deafult file explorer
  • To enable hibernation: execute settings/hibernation.sh
  • To set firefox minimum tab width: execute misc/firefox.sh

Extras

There are some extra software installers in the extras/ directory. Make sure to execute extras/init.sh before.

Development

There are some experimental install scripts in the dev/ directory.

Remove replaced packages

This installer kit provides replacements for some builtin Ubuntu softwares:

  • Empathy => Pidgin
  • Totem => VLC
  • Rhytmbox => Clementine

Thus you can even remove them:

$ sudo apt-get purge rhythmbox totem empathy

The purpose is to prevent any interactions with these applicationy by accident.

Our Mission

We want to make open source more sustainable. The entire platform was born from this and everything we do is in aid of this.
