One-click OS reinstallation Script (17 Linux + Windows)

Hey folks.

I've created a powerful one-click OS reinstallation script, and I'm excited to introduce it to you all.

Highlights

  • One-click reinstall VPS to Linux

    • Alpine, Debian, Kali, Ubuntu, CentOS, Anolis, RedHat, AlmaLinux, Rocky, OpenCloudOS, Oracle Linux, Fedora, openEuler, openSUSE, NixOS, Arch Linux, Gentoo
  • One-click reinstall VPS to Windows

    • Uses the official ISO for installation instead of custom images. The script automatically retrieves the ISO link and installs Virtio and other drivers.
  • Supports installation in any direction, i.e., Linux to Linux, Linux to Windows, Windows to Windows, Windows to Linux

  • No need to input IP parameters; automatically recognizes dynamic and static IPs, supports /32, /128, gateway outside subnet, IPv6 only, dual NIC and other special network configurations
  • Specially optimized for low-spec servers, requires less memory than the official netboot
  • Supports BIOS and EFI boot, and ARM architecture
  • No homemades image included, all resources are obtained in real-time from mirror sites

  • One line, yes. One click, no. Nothing to click in terminal.

  • Keep up the great work

  • Thank you for providing this project. I attempted to use your script to install Windows on my Linux VPS.

    However, after the Windows OS downloads, the VPS gets stuck on a blinking OS selection screen, looping back to the boot menu without starting the installation.

    Due to hardware differences, there may be compatibility issues. If you wish, you can DM me your VPS panel account, and I can try to resolve it.

    I successfully installed Windows using your script on a different provider. Thank you very much for your work!

    However, I am currently facing an issue with changing the default RDP port in Windows.

    Here’s what I tried:

    bash reinstall.sh windows \
    --image-name 'Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024' \
    --lang en-us
    --password XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX --rdp-port XXXX

    But the output shows:

    -bash: --password: command not found

    Could you please guide me on resolving this issue?

    Thanks again for your assistance!

    that website has change to forbid direct link.
    So now needs a trick.
    Download the iso on chrome, and copy the iso direct link from chrome://downloads.
    And add the parameter --iso 'http://your_link'

  • I am going to direct link the iso file from my server dl.mysite.com/windows-x.iso hope that will work :)

    Just try it, the script will display each step with a green title.

    Is there any plan for this script to support Proxmox / PVE? Would be awesome to take any old vps and turn it into a VPS host.

    no such plan because the PVE netinstall requires loading the entire ISO into memory. My script is target for machines with 512MB or 1GB of RAM.
