Intro

Using linux without my dotfiles is annoying. This playbook fixes this. It copies my settings for vim, zsh and other programs from my osx MBP to the linux machine and it uses linuxbrew to install new software.

Requirements

  • ansible
  • vagrant
  • virtualbox
  • root access to the target machine (I'm working to make it optional)
1GB of ram for compiling the_silver_searcher

Instructions

sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install ansible
vagrant up
ansible-playbook site.yml

# if you change a dotfile
ansible-playbook site.yml --tags dotfiles

Fork

It will not work out of the box on your MBP. You need to customize/fix it.

Previous work

  • dotfiles in git/dropbox. It didn't work for me.
  • NIS/Yellow pages feature mount home on login. ;-)

Problems with osx

These are notes about osx mavericks fresh installations.

  • /usr/bin/zsh breaks sudo -s (very slow after pressing enter)
mv /usr/bin/git /usr/bin/git.original
  • root uses /usr/bin/vi and is too old compared to macvim
cd /usr/bin
ln -sf /usr/local/bin/vi .
