mediakit_x86

digitalisation of schools - simple, independent, reliable, economical

convert almost every x86 computer into a "mediakit" by starting a shellskript after a fresh debian install... This is what you get:

• Selfhealing account (all changes done by user mk are deleted at startup)
• Many useful programs for schools (Openboard, Geogebra, Netbeans with Java support, python pip, Virtual-Box, VLC-Player etc.)
• Up- and Download Nodejs-Server
• Takeaway system (Export whole system on any external media by full configured Linux-Live-Kit)

Getting Started

• Install a new debian system (testet with debian 10.1.0-amd64-xfce+nonfree.iso)
• (optional) make your own changes to the fresh installed system

Installing

• Install git

sudo apt-get install git

• Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/codekoch/mediakit_x86

• Start the install shellscript as root

cd mediakit_x86

su

./install.sh

• Take a coffee (Installation will take some time...)
• Restart to autologin into the new account

sudo shutdown -r now

• Choose default panel when asked for
• Customize everything according to your needs
• Open a terminal, save the current account settings and restart system

su

sudo /etc/init.d/resethomedir.sh save

sudo shutdown -r now

• Have fun with your new mediakit

Hints

• All changes done by user mk are deleted at startup
• If you want to keep some changes save the account settings again as described above in the last step of installation
• Use Node-File-Manager to start a server, which can be reached by any device in the same network.
• To build a Takeaway System:

  • su

  • mount /dev/{yourdevice} /a

  • /usr/bin/buildLinuxLive.sh
