Supports automatically fetch the ISO link and installs public cloud drivers like `VirtIO`. - Supports reinstallation in any direction, i.e., `Linux to Linux`, `Linux to Windows`, `Windows to Windows`, `Windows to Linux` - Automatically configures IP and intelligently sets it as static or dynamic. Supports `/32`, `/128`, `gateway outside subnet`, `IPv6 only`, `IPv4/IPv6 on different NIC` - Specially optimized for low-spec servers, requires less memory than the official netboot - Uses partition table ID to identify hard drives throughout the process, ensuring no wrong disk is written - Supports BIOS and EFI boot, and ARM Server - No homemades image included, all resources are obtained in real-time from mirror sites Buy me a milk tea: [](https://github.com/sponsors/bin456789) [](https://github.com/sponsors/bin456789) ### Feedback [](https://github.com/bin456789/reinstall/issues) [](https://t.me/reinstall_os) ## Quick Start - [Download](#download-current-system-is--linux) - [Feature 1.

Resolving Script Download Issues on Windows 7

Due to lack of support for TLS 1.2, SHA-256, or outdated root certificates, Windows Vista, 7, and Server 2008 (R2) may not be able to download scripts automatically. Manual downloading is required, as follows: Use Internet Explorer (enable TLS 1.2 in IE's advanced settings first) to download, or use Remote Desktop to save the following two files into the same directory: - - To use, run the downloaded `reinstall.bat`.

For server outside China: ```batch certutil -urlcache -f -split https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bin456789/reinstall/main/reinstall.bat ``` For server inside China: ```batch certutil -urlcache -f -split https://cnb.cool/bin456789/reinstall/-/git/raw/main/reinstall.bat ``` ## Usage **All features** can be used on both Linux and Windows. - on Linux, run `bash reinstall.sh ...` - on Windows, first run `cmd`, then run `.\reinstall.bat ...` - If the link in the parameter contains special characters, it should be enclosed in `""`, not `''`. ### Feature 1: Install Linux > [!CAUTION] > > This feature will erase **the entire hard disk** of the current system (including other partitions)! > > If the script was run by mistake, you can run `bash reinstall.sh reset` before rebooting to cancel the reinstallation operation. - The script prompts for a username and password. If left blank, will use `root` and random password. - If no version specified, will install the latest version. - Maximizes disk space utilization: no boot or swap partitions. - Automatically install optimized kernel based on machine type and vendor. - When installing Red Hat, you must provide the `qcow2` image link obtained from . You can also install `qcow2` of other RHEL-based OS, such as `Alibaba Cloud Linux` and `TencentOS Server`. - After reinstallation, if you need to change the SSH port or switch to key-based login, make sure to also modify the files inside `/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/`. - To ensure a faster reinstall, the new system will not be updated during the process. Please update the system manually after reinstallation. - The username, password, and key configured during the installation of fnOS/FygoOS are only used to log in via SSH to view logs during installation, and will not be applied to the new system. After installation, you need to go to the admin panel at to create a user and enable SSH. ```bash bash reinstall.sh anolis 7|8|23 rocky 8|9|10 oracle 8|9|10 almalinux 8|9|10 opencloudos 8|9|23 centos 9|10 fnos 1 fygoos 1 nixos 26.05 fedora 43|44 debian 9|10|11|12|13 opensuse 16.0|tumbleweed openeuler 20.03|22.03|24.03 alpine 3.21|3.22|3.23|3.24 ubuntu 18.04|20.04|22.04|24.04|26.04 [--minimal] kali arch gentoo aosc redhat --img="http://access.cdn.redhat.com/xxx.qcow2" ``` #### Optional Parameters - `--username USERNAME` Set the username - `--password PASSWORD` Set the password - `--ssh-key KEY` Set up SSH login public key, [formatted as follows](#--ssh-key).

Therefore, you need to use `--image-name` to specify the system edition (image name) to install, case-insensitive. You can use tools like DISM, DISM++, or Wimlib to query the image names included in the ISO. #### How to Use [DISM++](https://github.com/Chuyu-Team/Dism-Multi-language/releases) to Query the Image Names Included in the ISO Open File menu > Open Image File, select the iso to be installed to get the image name (full system name), and all available image names are installable.  > [!WARNING] > Vista, Server 2008 and 32-bit systems may lack drivers. > [!WARNING] > > For Vista, 7, Server 2008, Server 2008 R2 installation: > > 1.

The script will install Windows in `BIOS boot + MBR partition table` mode. > > (Optional) After installation, you can convert it to `EFI boot + GPT partition table` using the command `MBR2GPT /convert /allowFullOS`. > > 2. Create a custom RAW image and install it via DD. #### Considerations for Installing Windows on ARM Most ARM cloud server support installing Windows 11. During the installation process, you might encounter a black screen, and the serial console may display `ConvertPages: failed to find range`, but neither issue affects the installation. | Compatibility | Cloud Provider | Instance Type | Issues | | ------------- | -------------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ✔️ | Azure | B2pts_v2 | | | ✔️ | AWS | T4g | | | ✔️ | Scaleway | COPARM1 | | | ✔️ | Gcore | | | | ❔ | Alibaba Cloud | g6r, c6r, g8y, c8y, r8y | Might hanging at the boot logo during restart; forced reboot will resolve it. | | ❔ | Oracle Cloud | A1.Flex | Installation success is not guaranteed; newer instances are more likely to succeed. | | ❌ | Google Cloud | t2a | Missing network card drivers | ### Cancel the reinstallation - If the script was run by mistake, you can run this command to cancel the reinstallation operation. - Must be run before rebooting. ```bash bash reinstall.sh reset ``` ## Parameter Format ### --ssh-key - `--ssh-key "ssh-rsa ..."` - `--ssh-key "ssh-ed25519 ..."` - `--ssh-key "ecdsa-sha2-nistp256/384/521 ..."` - `--ssh-key http://path/to/public_key` - `--ssh-key github:your_username` or `--ssh-key gh:your_username` - `--ssh-key gitlab:your_username` or `--ssh-key gl:your_username` - `--ssh-key /path/to/public_key` - `--ssh-key C:\path\to\public_key` ## How to Use an Old Version According to the Law of Bug Conservation, fixing old bugs often introduces new ones. If a bug occurs, try using an older version to see if it works. Go to and find the old version’s `commit_id` on the right side. Replace `xxxxxxxx` in the script below with the `commit_id` of an older version and run the script. ```bash commit_id=xxxxxxxx curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bin456789/reinstall/$commit_id/reinstall.sh || wget -O ${_##*/} $_ sed -i "/^confhome.*main$/s/main/$commit_id/" reinstall.sh bash reinstall.sh ... ``` ## How to Modify the Script for Your Own 1. Fork this repository. 2. Modify the `confhome` and `confhome_cn` at the beginning of `reinstall.sh` and `reinstall.bat`. 3. Make changes to the other code. 4. Download and run your `reinstall.sh` or `reinstall.bat`." ## Thanks Thanks to the following businesses for providing free servers. [](https://www.oracle.com/cloud/) [](https://dartnode.com/)
