linit

Utilities for a freshly installed Linux System

IMPORTANT:

It is recommended to first run the installer in a virtual environment before running it on your machine. Alternatively, you can edit the installer.sh file and comment out functions you would not like to run.

This repository provides a seamless way to install many of the commonly used programs/scripts.

It has been tested on an Ubuntu system and might therefore fail to run on a non Debian based distribution. In addition, some of these programs are based on amd64 architecture and might therefore not work on a 32-bit system.

The script will run for sometime for a fresh installation depending on the network speed and/or hardware.
