+# Proxmox Debian VM Bootstrap Wizard
+
+A simple, interactive bootstrap for freshly cloned Debian VMs on Proxmox.  
+It uses a two‑stage approach:
+
+1. **Bootstrap script** (stored as `setup.sh` on your VM template)  
+   - Prompts for root if needed  
+   - Downloads and runs the latest interactive wizard  
+2. **Remote setup wizard** (pulled from Git)  
+   - Menu‑driven (`whiptail`) configuration: updates, sudo, hostname, SSH keys, aliases, neofetch, CIFS mounts, etc.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Debian‑based VM template  
+- Network access to `git.jordanwages.com`  
+- `whiptail` (auto‑installed if missing)  
+- Either `curl` or `wget`  
+
+---
+
+## Installation
+
+1. **Copy & rename**  
+   On your Debian template, place the **bootstrap** script as `/root/setup.sh`:
+   ```bash
+   chmod +x /root/setup.sh
+
+2. **Provision a new VM**
+   Clone from your template and boot it. Then run:
+
+   ```bash
+   sudo /root/setup.sh
+   ```
+
+   * If you’re not root, you’ll be prompted (via `whiptail`) for the root password.
+   * The script fetches and executes the latest remote wizard.
+
+3. **Follow the wizard**
+   Use the on‑screen menus to:
+
+   * Grant passwordless `sudo` to selected users
+   * Apply system updates
+   * Set a new hostname
+   * Add SSH keys for root & your primary user
+   * Install core & optional utilities (`htop`, `jq`, `git`, etc.)
+   * Configure CIFS mounts for your NAS shares
+
+---
+
+## Customization
+
+* **Default SSH key**
+  Edit the `DEFAULT_SSH_KEY` variable in the remote `setup.sh` to your own public key.
+
+* **Optional packages**
+  Tweak the `TOOLS=(…)` array in the remote script to add or remove utilities.
+
+* **CIFS shares**
+  Adjust the `CIFS_HOSTS=(…)` array to match your NAS hostnames.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+* **Fetch failures**
+  Ensure network connectivity and that `curl` or `wget` is installed.
+
+* **Rerunning**
+  Simply invoke:
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo /root/setup.sh
+  ```
+
+  again to repeat the wizard.
+
+* **Manually inspect**
+  If a step errors out, inspect the console output for hints.
