  • 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.
  • Finish the installation. The VM won't automatically come back after the first reboot, so type "continue" and setup.sh will restart it.
  • While Windows is completing the install, Windows 10 will get stuck while configuring the network. On the "Let's connect you to a network" screen, click the "Skip for now" button in the lower left corner to continue.
  • Optional: once the installation is done, you can finally fix the erratic mouse by going to the control panel and disable "Enhanced Pointer Precision" under Mouse Properties, Pointer Options.
  • Go to the Device Manager and update the driver of the ethernet card using "NetKVM" from the second CDROM.
  • Open powershell as Administrator (right click menu item, select "Run as Administrator") and type:
    • "Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope LocalMachine -ExecutionPolicy Bypass", then Y [enter].
    • "Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy Bypass", then Y [enter].
    • "Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass", then Y [enter].
  • In the start menu, type UAC [enter], and disable user access control.
  • Update Windows
    • Beware of the side effects of installing Windows updates. For example, the network connection may be taken down until a reboot is done after performing some updates.
  • Download and install git for Windows (e.g., https://git-scm.com), 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)
    • Ignore messages about missing packages. These are packages that the script will install.
    • Near the end of the first run, for a long time the message "Click the OK button to execute these tasks and update the configuration of this computer." will be displayed. The script it still running. Wait until the script finishes before proceeding.
    • The script will install packages and stuff, and prompt you to reboot a couple of times. Re-run the script as Administrator after each reboot.
    • .Net 3.5 will be installed as a dependency. This will require some user interaction.
    • Towards the end:
      • There is a dialog titled "Create Private Key Password". Press "None". There will then be a prompt in the command window to "Enter PFX password", just hit Enter.
      • When prompted with the "Security Warning" about installing the certificate, select "Yes". NOTE: the default is "No" so be careful not to hit Enter.
  • After the last reboot, the BuildDaemon should start. IMPORTANT: allow winbuild 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
