Only a couple minor changes, but I also made a sweet ascii image.ġ- Run this as one, single command (to download the right scripts for your distribution): If you'd rather run some scripts than copy and paste every single step below, you have the option to do that now.ġ3 Nov-14: Updated the scripts. (I had to reinstall Ubuntu 3 times trying to figure all this out, hence the reason why I'm making this guide.) Be on the safe side so it's not the end of the world if something odd happens and you have to reinstall Ubuntu.
