Seeking the quickest way to generate an image for re-installation
Hello! I am interested in the quickest way to produce a minimally customized image for unattended re-installation, either by creating a customized .iso or imaging an existing installation. I have consulted many of Kari's guides on this site and in general they seem to be too involved for my use case - I just want a clean installation to store on an external drive, with all drivers and a couple of installed programs and registry settings changed that I can re-use in the event of any difficulties. I have looked into using Macrium or another third party program but I do have concerns about using anything proprietary - perhaps somebody can help to allay those concerns!
If it turns out that one of methods outlined in Kari's tutorials is indeed the best way to go I will of course be happy to pursue that further. Thank you so much!
