Here’s a little program I found on the net cause I liked the old calculator better. The Win10 calculator app just doesn’t do it for me. Frequently opens up all big and taking up 1/3 of my screen and feels slower to start. The old one is fast, light, and has a smaller UI. :)
I needed to resize one of my VMs. This will serve as some better notes than what I see online.
1. Shutdown VM and open the ESXI WEB UI to resize the virtual disk and check a box to force the bios to open on power up.
2. Attach gparted iso to VM then power it up and adjust boot order to boot iso.
3. Once booted, deactivate LVM root volume and resize both extended and logical partitions to max disk size or as desired.
So I had an idea to make creating VMs a little easier for me instead of clicking a handful of buttons and powering up the VM then waiting for it to install. I found a blog post intended for Mac VMs that was inspired from a now deleted site’s blog post by a guy who needed to make a bunch of them quicker so I forked Tamas’s script (the original one I think) and modified it to create Ubuntu VMs. :) I also added a few scripts of my own that would tell me if a VM was ready and another to give me the IP. I may try to integrate those two at some point.
My opinion on why they hurt performance and probably sales of new computers
I did a thing that works but requires a little manual work to do…
because the factory deck just wasn’t loud enough. ;)
and future-proof yourself for version 2.5 when it releases.
and why you need it.
