Description

I'm trying to install flare-vm on freshly imported MSEdge - Win10 VM image from Microsoft (I was using it year ago for fresh install without problem) and package list shown is empty. Config.xml downloaded by the script contains some packages. Tried to use -customConfig but no change.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Import MSEdge testing VM
  2. Try to install according to manual

Expected behavior:

List of packages is not empty and packages are installed

Actual behavior:

There are no tools installed

Environment

Additional Information

flare_no_packages

It's because you don't run the latest version of choco (at least v2.0.0 is required) #471

Thanks for the PR @naacbin. I think we should ensure the choco/boxstarter versions are compatible and that there is an internet connection before starting the GUI.
