  • Once you're in the VM, start a custom Windows install.
  • It will fail to find a disk driver, so click "Load driver", and navigate to viostor in the second CDROM, then the subfolder that corresponds to your version of Windows (win8.1 drivers work fine on Windows 10).
  • Finish the installation. The VM won't automatically come back after the first reboot, so type "continue" and setup.sh will restart it.
  • Optional: once the installation is done, you can finally fix the erratic mouse by going to the control panel and disable "Enhance mouse position" or something like that.
  • Go to the Device Manager and update the driver of the ethernet card using "NetKVM" from the second CDROM.
  • Open powershell as root and type "Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted", then Y [enter].
  • In the start menu, type UAC [enter], and disable user access control.
  • Update Windows
  • Download and install git for Windows, open an Administrator cmd window and:
    • cd \
    • git clone https://github.com/OpenXT/openxt.git
    • cd openxt\windows
    • powershell .\mkbuildserver.ps1
      • Optional: add " -mirror http://<your_mirror>" if you wish to use a mirror to download the various installers
      • Optional: add " -proxy <your_proxy>" if you want the downloads to go through a proxy (only supported by Cygwin as of yet)
    • The script will install packages and stuff, and make you reboot a bunch of times. Re-run the script as Administrator after each reboot
  • After the last reboot, the BuildDaemon should start. IMPORTANT: allow winbuildd through the firewall when asked. The BuildDaemon is what will be used for further Windows interaction.
  • You can now close VNC and type "continue" in setup.sh
