Hello, all!
Not too long ago I released qvm-create-windows-qube but quit pushing
changes for a while because I realized there was still a of work to be
done and I wanted to get it out of the dev/beta phase before releasing a
new version.
Well, it's over 200 commits later and I would say it's well out of
beta now.
Biggest new features include:
* Use a much newer Windows 7 7601 ISO for Windows 7
* Support Windows 8.1-10 Pro/Enterprise (ISO downloads from Microsoft
included)
* Support Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC (Also download provided)
* Support Windows Server 2008 R2 - Windows Server 2019 (Also downloads
provided)
* Chocolatey integration
* Option to slim down Windows installation (Similar to the following
but much more refined due to especially the disabling of services I
found could break things in a way that would result in a bad UX,
also expanded for Windows 10:
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/windows-template-customization/)
* Test signing Qubes GUI driver is now enabled during Windows
installation process to skip a reboot
* Hardcoding trial product key in answer files (or anywhere) is no
longer necessary, Windows will use embedded trial key without any
user interaction by default
* windows-mgmt is air gapped
* Travis CI is being used for integration testing
* Tons of code cleanup, reorganization and refactoring (I'm of the
OpenBSD mindset where having clean (correct) code is just as
important as having functional code, so a lot of stuff just got
rewritten)
* Everything is much more stable (No more lame sleeps for arbitrary
amounts of time)
* MIT license
Additionally, I made a PGP key (also using Qubes Split GPG) so hopefully
my code and anything I else I make can reach you a lot more securely.
Repo can be found here, please star if you find it useful :)

I'm working towards having this project be similar (or superior) to
VMWare's Windows "Easy Install" feature but on Qubes:
