Create a Host

I'm not going to document this part. Pick your favorite hosting service and create a Debian 10 host. Get the IP address.

IP: 54.202.176.144

System Update and Core Software

Log in to your host, assume root (or prefix the following with sudo if you prefer).

Script:

apt update -y
apt upgrade -y
apt install -y emacs-nox
apt install -y apache2 certbot python3-certbot-apache
apt install -y mariadb-server php php-mysql libapache2-mod-php php-xml php-mbstring
# Support for Extra MediaWiki Features:
apt install -y php-apcu php-intl imagemagick php-cli php-curl git

Retry: On my first pass through, just pasting this to a CLI, it stopped after the second line (upgrade). I then pasted the whole thing into a file and called it with "sh < init.sh", and it ran the whole way through. When I nuke this box and come back through I want to try again using the shell script file on the first pass.
