-Installation
-============
-
-The latest ISO image for VyOS can be downloaded at https://www.vyos.net.
-
-The recommended system requirements are 512 MiB RAM and 2 GiB storage.
-
-The VyOS ISO is a Live CD and will boot to a functional VyOS image. To login
-to the system, use the default username ``vyos`` with password ``vyos``.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software;
- the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
- individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.
-
- Debian GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent
- permitted by applicable law.
- vyos@vyos:~$
-
- vyos@vyos:~$ uname -a
- Linux vyos 4.18.11-amd64-vyos #23 SMP Mon Oct 1 17:29:22 CEST 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux
-
-Unlike general purpose Linux distributions, VyOS uses "image installation"
-that mimics the user experience of traditional hardware routers and allows
-you to keep multiple VyOS versions on the same machine and switch to a previous
-version if something breaks after upgrade. Every version is contained in its
-own squashfs image that is mounted in a union filesystem together with a
-directory for mutable data (configs etc.).
-
-.. note:: Older versions used to support non-image installation (`install
- system` command). It's been deprecated since the time image installation
- was introduced (long before the fork), and does not provide any version
- management capabilities. You **should not** use it for new installations
- even if it's still available in new versions. You should not worry about
- older systems installed that way though, they can be upgraded with ``add
- system image``. In addition the ``install system`` command has been
- removed in VyOS 1.2 (Crux).
-
-To install VyOS, run ``install image``.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
- vyos@vyos:~$ install image
- Welcome to the VyOS install program. This script
- will walk you through the process of installing the
- VyOS image to a local hard drive.

- Probing drives: OK
- Looking for pre-existing RAID groups...none found.
- The VyOS image will require a minimum 2000MB root.
- Would you like me to try to partition a drive automatically
- or would you rather partition it manually with parted? If
- you have already setup your partitions, you may skip this step
-
- Partition (Auto/Parted/Skip) [Auto]:
-
- I found the following drives on your system:

- Continue? (Yes/No) [No]: Yes
-
- How big of a root partition should I create? (2000MB - 4294MB) [4294]MB:
