# Generate an automated Windows ISO image from the Linux terminal.
|
|
|
|
Windows ISO's can be patched with an autounattend.xml file to make the setup process automatic.
|
|
Microsoft has extensive documentation on accomplishing this from a Windows environment, but information to get this done on Linux is less common.
|
|
|
|
This script is for anyone who needs automatic deployment of Windows VM's from the comfort of the Linux terminal.
|
|
This took me a good bit of research to figure out, but this script puts all the pieces together to make it easy peasy.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
1. Download a Windows ISO
|
|
2. Modify the script to point to the new ISO file
|
|
3. `sudo ./make-iso`
|
