Script to install a working FreeBSD desktop (web-browser,office applications) in 5 minutes.

Contents

5MinuteDesktop.sh/ This is the main script which is tested to run on a default installation of FreeBSD 10. The script uses packages by way of pkgng to quickly build out a desktop with a working browser.

These are currently two window managers that can be passed to the script:

i3 fluxbox

How To

Run the following from a FreeBSD 10 install to setup a desktop

fetch --no-verify-peer https://raw.github.com/shirkdog/5minutedesktop/master/5MinuteDesktop.sh && chmod 700 5MinuteDesktop.sh && ./5MinuteDesktop.sh i3

or fluxbox instead of i3

TODO

Work this into an ISO file to automate the entire process, based on FreeBSD 10 pkgng repo
