AKA Setup Instructions - davepo/AKA GitHub Wiki

Installation and Use Instructions

1) Initial Prep

a) Download and install Ruby on your system. b) Clone this repository to your system.

2) Tool Setup

Option 1 (Automatic, online)

Use this option if the system your going to run AKA on is connected to the internet.

  1. Run the 'Setup.bat' file as Administrator.
  2. When prompted, hit any key to continue with the Arsenal Driver install.
    • This will cause the arsenal GUI to open and prompt you to install/upgrade the driver.
    • Select Yes. When complete, close out of the Arsenal GUI and the setup script will continue.

Option 2 (Automatic, online/offline)

Use this option if you need to install AKA on an offline system.

  1. From an internet connected system, run the 'Offline-Setup-Prep.bat' file as Administrator.
  2. Copy the AKA folder to your offline system.
  3. Run the 'Offline-Setup.bat' file as Administrator.
  4. When prompted, hit any key to continue with the Arsenal Driver install.
    • This will cause the arsenal GUI to open and prompt you to install/upgrade the driver.
    • Select Yes. When complete, close out of the Arsenal GUI and the setup script will continue.

Option 3 (Manual)

Use this option... if you want to? I guess you can use it to verify the other methods, if you run into issues.

  1. Download and extract each of the tools from the README.md file in the 'tools' folder, into the 'tools' folder. It is fine if the executables are in sub-directories, but they cannot be in zipped archives.
  2. Download and install the Ruby Gem's by running 'gem install --force --local *.gem' from the 'tools' directory.
  3. Install the Arsenal Image Mounter driver by running the GUI application.
  4. Extract the 'aim_ll.zip' file from the Arsenal Image Mounter main github repository, then extract it to its own directory.
  5. Extract the libewf x64 dlls from the Arsenal Image Mounter main github repository into the same location as the 'aim_ll.exe' file.
