→Testing Your Configuration
Make a full and complete backup of any configuration file that you're going to change. It's a good idea to fully back-up your virtual machines as well as the <code>/etc</code> directory of your f13host system.
<div style="background: yellow">You may choose to create the script and system configuration on any of your virtual machines or on your f13host. However, to fully test the vm-manager portion, you will need to run this on your '''f13-host'''.</div>
=== The Script ===
#* administrator - can run any command as root via sudo '''with''' their regular user password
# Ensure that the root user can run the script without taking any special steps. For example, the root user should be able to type this command regardless of which directory they are in: <code>newuser jdoe 123abc vm-manager</code>
{{Admon/note|Bonus|A bonus of up to 10% of the assignment mark is available for adding good error-checking to the script. For the full bonus mark, the error-checking should be comprehensive.}}
=== The System Configuration ===
#* If the last digit of your student ID is 6, install OpenSUSE
#* If the last digit of your student ID is 7, install Debian
#* If the last digit of your student ID is 8, install Backtrack
#* If the last digit of your student ID is 9, install CentOS
# Confirm that a user account with the "vm-manager" role can start and stop the virtual machine into which you have installed the other version of Linux.
