The Scripts

On the old computer:

• Use list-update.sh to print out packages you're using but not included in the scripts here.
• Optionally, use list-installed-packages.sh </FOLDER/>: to export lists of installed things into FOLDER for future references

On the freshly installed computer:

• sudo apt install openssh-server zsh tmux curl -y && chsh -s /bin/zsh
• Generate SSH key and add it to GitHub.
• Install dotfiles.
• Install ssh-dir.
• Install this repo: mkdir -p ~/git/source; cd ~/git/source; git clone git@github.com:ickc/bootstrapping-os-environments.git || git clone https://github.com/ickc/bootstrapping-os-environments.git; cd bootstrapping-os-environments/debian
  • brew.sh (optional)
  • apt.sh / raspbian.sh
    • deb.sh
      • conda activate
        • conda-install.sh
          • jupyterlab.sh
            • jupyterlab-chrome.sh

Raspberry Pi 4

UEFI

• update the EEPROM
  • to check: sudo rpi-eeprom-update
  • to update: sudo rpi-update and then reboot
• prepare SD card: pftf/RPi4: Raspberry Pi 4 UEFI Firmware Images. In order for the UEFI config to persist, as of writing, these conditions must be met:
  • use micro SD card rather than USB
  • format it with ESP flag
  • some micro SD card might not work, e.g. a 2GB micro SD card I have, but 4GB or 128GB are fine.
• Turn off 3GB limit: Device Manager → Raspberry Pi Configuration → Advanced Configuration

memtest86

memtest86 can be run together with UEFI setup above. As of UEFI firmware v1.37, only single CPU mode would work.
