Unlike the other operating systems which have a bash script that runs on Linux and scripts qemu to prepare a GCE image, the Windows image builder image is prepared by hand, following this list of instructions: -- in GCE, create a new Windows 2008 server instance. Set its initial username to "wingopher" and the password to something. -- boot it. first boot is slow. -- Connect with RDP to it. (I used the OS X Microsoft Remote Desktop in the Mac App Store) -- In initial “Initial Configuration Tasks” window: * disable automatic installation of updates. They’ll just interrupt the builds later. And we don't care about security since this isn't going to be Internet-facing. No ports will be accessible * disable Windows Error Report (“Not participating”) TODO: disable the Windows firewall too. might break some outgoing net tests? Figure out where to do this. -- Enable auto-login: * Start > Run > Open: "control userpasswords2" [OK] * Uncheck the "Users must enter a user name..." box (it already was unchecked for me) * Press "OK" * Enter password twice. -- Download winstrap. * Bring up cmd.exe (Start > Run > "cmd" [OK]) * Copy/paste (Right click: paste) this into cmd.exe: bitsadmin /transfer mydownloadjob /download /priority normal https://storage.googleapis.com/winstrap/winstrap-2015-01-03-440bb77.exe c:\users\wingopher\Desktop\winstrap.exe * It should appear on the desktop. -- double click winstrap. type "go" and press <enter>. abort it once it's downloaded everything. (close the window) -- make the Buildlet start on boot: * Start > All Programs > right click "Startup" * Right-mouse-drag "Start Buildlet" from the desktop (from winstrap) to the Startup folder and "Create shortcuts here" -- Install git with middle option: "Use Git from Windows Command Prompt", otherwise all the defaults. -- click yes yes yes on the tdm64-gcc installer question defaults. Then do the tdm64-gcc installer again but do 32-bit this time. You should then have two TDM installs at c:\TDM-GCC-64 and c:\TDM-GCC-32. Don’t pick other locations. The gobuilder adds those to your path. TODO(bradfitz): this document is incomplete. Cover gcesysprep, regedit(?), windows-startup-script-cmd, etc. And I think winstrap will need to write things to something outside of C:\Users, since sysprep on reboot nukes all users, at least on GCE. We probably need to run the buildlet's stage0 from the windows-startup-script-cmd. Find & ask Windows experts. -- Docs: http://www.win2008workstation.com/configure-auto-logon/ https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/operating-systems/windows -- notably "windows-startup-script-cmd" ala: gcloud compute instances add-metadata <INSTANCE> --zone <ZONE> --metadata windows-startup-script-cmd="net user <USERNAME> <PASSWORD>" https://github.com/golang/winstrap http://golang.org/s/windowsbuilderhowto
