Total noob here: I have a new rig just built and i'm trying to decide which OS to boot onto it.

Given i have no OS right now, does nvOC also serve as the OS? Or do i have to DL ubunto first?

I'm asking because i went ahead and imaged nvOC anyways, booted it onto the rig, saw a lot of critical core errors, saw the ubunto loading screen and now its asking for m1-desktop-login.

The image already has ubuntu 14.04 desktop on it. Before you use it you need to edit the 'OneBash' file your nvOC flash drive will place onto a small windows partition. Once that config file has been changed to point towards your address and to change OC/etc settings you don't need to touch anything when it boots - any prompts for passwords will be filled in automatically by the script, so don't interrupt it. Mine goes from cold boot to mining in ~2.5 minutes.

Gotcha. Since I'm mining ZEC, but currently havent set up an address yet, i guess the obvious is to wait until I have a ZEC address before booting ?

also, if i want to change the onebash file later on, do I have to change it on windows ( my laptop) or can i do it directly in ubunto? Thanks again =)
