# LDS image update tool
## Available image types:
* Tools, used for diagnosing systems, etc (Must me manually enabled in ipxe file)
* Installers, for installing a disto 
* Depercated_Installer, for installing a older distro (does not use `LinuxInstallers-ID.ipxe`)

## Installation instructions
**Part of LDS-based separate installation is not advised**

1. Install required packages (just for building and downloading images)
 * All distros: `ca-certificates zstd  cpio`
 * Deb based: `genisoimage wget unzip`
 * Alpine Linux: `bash cdrkit`
2. Clone this repo 
3. Enter into the project folder
4. Update www location in `Locations.conf` to the webserver folder
5. Link the ipxe image list to LDS by running `ln -s <PathToThisProject>/LinuxInstallers-ID.ipxe <PathToBootserver>/iPXE`
6. Update the ipxe of the boot server to chain load LinuxInstallers-ID.ipxe for the installers you can also enable Gparted and/or the Clonezilla enrty
7. Follow the usage Instructions below

## Usage instructions
**Make sure you are in the directory that contains the script**
* Run `bash Download-AllInstallers.sh` to download all (non deprecated) installers

* Run `bash Installer-<DistoNameAndVersion>.sh` to download a specific version
