Introduction

This works to install OpenGApps into the Android Emulator

Features:

• uses opengapps installer script (that we patch slightly)
• linux only because we mount the ext2/4 disk images to modify them. Could be adapted for macos if you use hdiutil instead of kpartx and have installed tools to mount ext2/4 filesystems on macos
• root permissions mandatory to mount disk images and enter chroot
• removes verity/verified-boot from the virtual device (so that the AVD can boot, otherwise it would not boot because we didn't update the dm_params)

Portable desktop WhatsApp

You start multiple instances of WhatsApp using --user-data-dir flag providing the full path to the directory. For example:

E:\Temp\Whatsapp>WhatsApp.exe --user-data-dir=E:\Temp\Whatsapp\number1

or by creating a shortcut with the flag.

Setup modern.ie vagrant boxes

Since modern.ie released vagrant boxes, it' no longer necessary to manually import the ova file to virtualbox, as mentioned here.

However, the guys at modern.ie didn't configured the box to work with WinRM. This how-to addresses that, presenting steps to proper repackage these boxes, adding WinRM support. Additionally configures chocolatey package manager and puppet provisioner.
