Clone the repository :\r\n   ```bash\r\n   git clone https://github.com/Jul1111/Debian12-Exegol-VM\r\n   ```\r\n#### 2. Download all parts of the Debian12.7z archive from the Releases section.\r\n- 🔗 [GitHub Releases (split archive)](https://github.com/Jul1111/Debian12-Exegol-VM/releases)\r\n- 🔗 [Direct Mega Link (full `.ova` file)](https://mega.nz/file/QUBi2DgY#cDtwvbKSQudLYNnZSEe9AoS2BxdBDxUL1aqu7yTRrqg)\r\n#### 3. Make sure all files are in the same folder, then extract using 7-Zip or via terminal :\r\n\r\n🖥️ On Windows (with 7-Zip installed):\r\n     ```\r\n    7z x Debian12.7z.001\r\n    ```\r\n\r\n🐧 On Linux/macOS (with p7zip-full installed) :\r\n      ```\r\n    7z x Debian12.7z.001\r\n    ```\r\n    \r\n#### 4. You will get the .ova virtual machine file. You can import it into your hypervisor (e.g., VirtualBox or VMware).\r\n\r\n## 🚀 Quickstart: Launching Exegol\r\n\r\nFrom the Debian 12 VM command line (Docker, pipx, and Exegol are already installed):\r\n\r\n### 1. Update Exegol \u0026 images  \r\n```bash\r\nexegol update    # Updates the Exegol wrapper and all installed images :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}\r\n```\r\n### 2. Start \u0026 enter a container\r\n```bash\r\nexegol start \u003ccontainer_name\u003e \u003cimage_name\u003e [options]\r\n```\r\nExample: \r\n```bash\r\nexegol start default\r\n```\r\n---\r\n![Example](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0317f251-4392-4f72-8ea7-f4419331d860)\r\n\r\n---\r\n- If \u003ccontainer_name\u003e is omitted, it defaults to the \u003cimage_name\u003e\r\n\r\n- Process:\r\n  - If the image isn’t installed, Exegol prompts for installation\r\n  - Creates the container with the provided settings\r\n  - Starts it and drops you into an interactive shell\r\n---  \r\n![Example2](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bd84257b-228a-41e5-abdd-f31ca76657f2)\r\n---\r\n\r\n\r\n ### Common options:\r\n```bash\r\n-w, --workspace \u003cpath\u003e: bind host folder to /workspace\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-cwd: mount current directory as workspace\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n--vpn \u003cfile.ovpn\u003e: launch VPN at startup\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-V, --volume \u003chost\u003e:\u003ccontainer\u003e: add volume mount\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-d, --device \u003cdev\u003e: add host device (e.g., /dev/ttyACM0)\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n--disable-X11: disable GUI sharing\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n--desktop: enable full GUI desktop via HTTP/VNC \r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-l, --log: enable shell logging (asciinema by default) \r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-e, --env KEY=VALUE: set environment variable\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n-s, --shell \u003cshell\u003e: choose shell (default: zsh)\r\n```\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n--privileged/--cap: add Linux capabilities or privileged mode when needed (e.g., VPN, devices)\r\n```\r\n---\r\n\r\n### For full option list :\r\n\r\nRun \r\n```bash\r\nexegol start -h\r\n```\r\n---\r\n\r\n### ✅ Verify file integrity (optional but recommended)\r\n\r\nAfter extracting `Debian12.7z`, you will get a `.ova` file.\r\n\r\nTo verify that the file was not corrupted or altered, run:\r\n\r\n#### On Linux/macOS :\r\n```bash\r\nsha256sum Debian12.ova\r\n```\r\n#### Windows PowerShell:\r\n```bash\r\nGet-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 .\\Debian12.ova\r\n```\r\n#### Expected SHA-256 hash:\r\n\r\n```bash\r\n890F4F754B0EE504AC61EE9CB886CD77B3A11F6DC2F17791F50A8EA9C1A79B39\r\n```\r\n#### If the result matches, the file is intact.\r\n\r\n---\r\n⚠️ **Security Note**: This VM is provided as-is.
