Installing additional OS #100

Open icdmkg2 opened 2 years ago

icdmkg2 commented 2 years ago

Hello there Can anyone tell me if there is a way to install different operating system etc Windows, Debian, ArchLinux

j-travis commented 2 years ago

Our officially supported distros/versions can be found here - Debian is one of them: https://kasmweb.com/docs/latest/install/system_requirements.html#operating-system

However, at the end of the day the main system requirements are openssl, docker >18.06 and docker compose v2. If the installer detects those it will continue and try to load up system: https://kasmweb.com/docs/latest/install/system_requirements.html#docker-and-docker-compose

Here is a summary and example on installing on an unsorted OS: https://kasmweb.com/docs/latest/how_to/other_operating_systems.html

See here: for installing docker compose v2 https://github.com/kasmtech/workspaces-issues/issues/93#issuecomment-1015275365

No i meant installing Operating System's on kasm

j-travis commented 2 years ago

Oh I see. Creating a new base image is very complex - so the answer is likely not.

If you are a solid understanding of linux and docker you can review our "core" images and try creating your own.

You won't be able to create a Windows version but you may be able to create a linux version. There are a lot of dependencies though.

k thanks

icdmkg2 commented 2 years ago

Will there be windows 10 support for kasm ?

j-travis commented 2 years ago

Likely not. You cant run graphical application inside windows containers so until that is a possibility we can't provide a windows solution as long as Kasm is 100% containerized

I use the cloud of Kasm not mine I don't have acces to the administration tools

icdmkg2 commented 2 years ago

So if you want Kali you need to tell your admin to enable it from the images tab at the administration panel

kaosproject commented 2 years ago

My admin is Kasm I'm on the Kasm cloud

j-travis commented 2 years ago

@kaosproject , unfortunately we do not offer Kali Linux on the cloud subscription offering.

If you install workspaces yourself (on prem or on the cloud) then you can use our Kali Image. It's installed by default on amd64 systems you just have to enable it from the Admin -> Image page. An arm64 image for Kali is not available at this time.

Is it possible to have ParrotOS ?

pmisner commented 2 years ago

Just curious how running windows on KVM in a Linux instance would work.
