1. Write Ubuntu PE ISO to USB:
sudo dd if=./focal-mate-x86_64-xxxxxxxx.iso of=/dev/<usb-dev-file> bs=16K && sync
2. Ubuntu PE Supported Features (Only for Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04 and future versions):
1. Support Booting USB/CDROM in both MBR & UEFI machines;
2. Support Installing Ubuntu Image to Hard Drive: sudo ubi-lite
3. Support Installing Windows Image to MBR Hard Drive: sudo wiminstall.mbrboot /dev/<os-part-name> <WIM file> <image-id>
[Method-1: Will Erase Grub in Hard drive (cautious!)]
ex-1: sudo wiminstall.mbrboot /dev/sda1 ./xp-sp3.wim
ex-2: sudo wiminstall.mbrboot /dev/sda1 ./windows-7.wim 4
ex-3: sudo wiminstall.mbrboot /dev/sda1 ./windows-11.wim 1
[Method-2: Not Erase Grub in Hard drive, but need three-step manual configuration on boot settings]
step-1: Ensure Ubuntu + Grub has been installed on hard driver partitions other than /dev/sda1
step-2: sudo wiminstall /dev/sda1 ./xp-sp3.wim
step-3: Reboot, login Ubuntu and run: sudo update-grub
[Method-3: For UEFI Installation to GPT Hard Drive]
sudo EFI=/dev/<efi-part-name> wiminstall.gptboot /dev/<os-part-name> <WIM file> <image-id>
(Default VNC password: 123456, and you can update it via 'vncpasswd' command inside VNC X session)
# Download/Update latest Ubuntu image
docker pull ghostplant/flashback
# Boot Service: Using web browser to login - https://localhost:8443/
docker run -it --rm --privileged -p 8443:8443 -v /external:/root ghostplant/flashback
# Other Example 1 - Language: Set locale to en_US.UTF-8
docker run -it --rm --privileged -e LANG=en_US.UTF-8 -p 8443:8443 -p 5901:5901 -v /external:/root ghostplant/flashback
# Other Example 2 - Resolution Size : Set display resolution to 1366x768
docker run -it --rm --privileged -e GEOMETRY=1366x768 -p 8443:8443 -p 5901:5901 -v /external:/root ghostplant/flashback
# Other Example 3 - Initial Password: Set initial VNC password (length of password must be between 6 to 8).
docker run -it --rm --privileged -e INIT_PASS=123456 -p 8443:8443 -p 5901:5901 -v /external:/root ghostplant/flashback
# Other Example 4 - Resolution Quality: Using 24-bit high resolution quality (Only recommended in high-bandwidth network)
docker run -it --rm --privileged -e INIT_PASS=123456 -e DEPTH=24 -p 8443:8443 -p 5901:5901 -v /external:/root ghostplant/flashback
Then use Firefox/Chrome to login if you expose port 8443:
