Install/setup-script

[biesbjerg]

It would be nice to have an install script, that takes care of setting everything up on a fresh install of a Linux.

• Installing the correct NVIDIA drivers + required tools
• Installing minotaur/fanotaur/excavataur
• Setup minotaur as a service etc.

Basically all the dirty work, that can be daunting for a (somewhat) newbie.

I have some experience installing and maintaining debian/ubuntu servers, but have no experience with nvidia drivers etc, so a script like this would be a really big help.

I don't know if this is something you'd be interested in creating, but I'm sure it would give you more users.

What do you think?

yeah i'll get to it when i have time. I have almost finished ansible code that does this, and plans to create a docker image to make it easier. i just don't have much time unfortunately so the things that increase profits are taking priority over everything else

Nice!

Totally understandable. I'm installing Ubuntu and attempting to get everything going right now. If you have any pointers/gotchas they're appreciated!

Thank you for your work :)
