### Welcome to the Syssetup Wiki # Welcome to the Syssetup Wiki
This is a **work in progress**, please bear that in mind. This wiki will cover the basic usage of this program and any special notes I have up to this point.

### Why was this made? # Why was this made?
I made this tool because I wanted a way to copy the basic setup of one system to another. However, I want to be able to run this tool on a configured system and have it generate a self contained restore package. Yes, I made this because I wanted to be as lazy as possible when copying a setup and reproducing it. I'm aware I could have used Ansible or some similar tool, but that would defeat the point of being as lazy as possible. Now this does use makeself to generate the self extracting restore package. However, makeself and this program are pure bash. This is a ode to abusing bash scripting to do things you probably shouldn't.

However, bash is basically everywhere, so it seemed like a good idea at the time.
# Does it Work?
Short answer, yes it does. I've tested this on Debian systems fairly extensively. See my issues for the known problems.

Wiki time! Yes, learning how to work the markdown to make me a wiki. I think so far we are at a good start, having moved some readme stuff to here. No master work yet, but we will get there.
