History
2015-12-06: recovery media - I start Toshiba Recovery Media Creator, insert a 16 GB usb stick and create usb recovery stick. The process took some time, but completed successfully. I labeled the recovery stick. Next I put it into my workstation to see what gpart and disktype thinks of it:
gpart
root@kg-core1# gpart show -p da1 => 63 30297153 da1 MBR (14G) 63 1985 - free - (992k) 2048 30294016 da1s1 !12 [active] (14G) 30296064 1152 - free - (576k)
disktype
root@kg-core1# disktype /dev/da1 --- /dev/da1 Character device, size 14.45 GiB (15512174592 bytes) DOS/MBR partition map Partition 1: 14.45 GiB (15510536192 bytes, 30294016 sectors from 2048, bootable) Type 0x0C (Win95 FAT32 (LBA)) FAT32 file system (hints score 4 of 5) Volume size 14.43 GiB (15493758976 bytes, 1891328 clusters of 8 KiB)
good. Mount it (readonly) and check it out:

2015-12-05: first boot runs Windows 8.1 setup. English language, region Norway, keyboard layout Norwegian, named it kg-z30, skipped WiFi setup for now. For (Update) Settings, I selected Customize, auto install important updates, turned off "automatically get device drivers, applications and info for new devices", turned off "automatically update my apps", I left SmartScreen and Do Not Track "on". I left both Check online for solutions "on", turned off everything about sharing info with Microsoft. Finally I created my account.
