| The BEST thing to do is to copy the MicroSD from Carambola (marked with a black 'O'):
* open a terminal so we can watch the MicroSD /dev/sd{#} assignments
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
* take the carambola MicroSD card out of the Pi and put it into an Anker hub (gets less hot than the small MicroSD sleeves - and it WILL get hot!)
* put another new MicroSD card into another Anker hub
* open another terminal
dcfldd bs=4M if=/dev/sd{Letter of carambola} of=/dev/sd{Letter of new card}
* They will get HOT... I don't know how to make sure they don't get TOO hot yet... cross your fingers I guess...
* Drop the new card into the new Pi, boot
* set up a new config folder
** rm ~/config
** cd development/config
** cp -rp carambola lime && git add lime
** cd ~ && ln -s development/config/lime config
* change /etc/hostname
* change name of exfat "share" partition
exfatlabel /dev/disk/by-label/carambola_share lime_share
* edit /etc/fstab to update partition name
* (optional) change the uuid of partitions as desired (otherwise you may get kernel/userspace warnings about conflicts when mounting more than one card in an ubuntu host) - note that I've never actually done this...
tune2fs /dev/sdaX -U random
* reboot.. and away we go!

Install Group Policy Editor from an admin Powershell console:

@echo off 
pushd "%~dp0" 

dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~3*.mum >List.txt 
dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~3*.mum >>List.txt 

for /f %%i in ('findstr /i . List.txt 2^>nul') do dism /online /norestart /add-package:"%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\%%i" 
pause

Run Group Policy Editor to disable restarts:

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Configure Automatic Updates
(o) Enabled
[2] Notify for download and auto install?  Or [3] Auto download and notify for install?  Going with [3], we'll see.
(or...) (o) Enabled: No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations

No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installation (just in case)

(reboot if you had to change it?  or will that wipe it out?  tbd...) 

In a corporate environment, you should quit your job - I mean, you will likely have to redo this after ANY f'in reboot.

Memtest boot disk
It should be on red-on-black flash drive. Or, get a fresh download of USB zip, it includes a Windows exe to create the boot. Or use the ISO.
Ubuntu upgrade / reinstall notes
Create and boot from Ubuntu USB
There should always be a boot USB for this in my set, but it needs recreation on new Ubuntu versions...
  1. Download the latest 64-bit Ubuntu desktop iso
  2. Format a USB drive as FAT (NOT exFAT or NTFS)
  3. Burn the iso to the USB, providing a GB of space (we want to add the nvidia driver once booted)
sudo usb-creator-gtk
  1. Boot with it
  2. On startup, select the USB EFI boot option in refind, select "Try Ubuntu", (on MBPro, hit e and add [ nouveau.noaccel=1] to grub line), hit F10 to start
  3. Once it is running, start System Settings, select Software, enable proprietary drivers
  4. Install, checking the [download as you go] and [install 3rd party stuff] boxes.
Ubuntu set up networking
Install NetworkManager, as the wpagui UI sucks
  • sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
  • YOU MUST remove interfaces from /etc/network/interfaces so wpa gives them up to nm-applet
  • add nm-applet to startup if needed - i don't think it is needed as it seems to start up automatically now - try rebooting first
