alis VS homelab

IMHO, it still lacks proper error handling. When i'm in a hurry, i usually end up using ALIS. https://picodotdev.github.io/alis/

have a look at ALIS by picodot. https://github.com/picodotdev/alis

No, it's like any other distribution. Even installation is now simplified through scripts like alis (https://picodotdev.github.io/alis/).

I like arch and I use alis to install it using systemd and xfce. There's no ide you need to manually edit the conf file and hope you didnt do anything it didnt like https://picodotdev.github.io/alis/

Suppose if I want to fit this os and all necessary app dependencies on a smart toaster or fridge... but maintain absolute stability and reasonable response metrics. Bare metal through full capability deployment is what I'm thinking with Linux auto install, similar to https://github.com/khuedoan/homelab or https://github.com/picodotdev/alis

Sorry I can't help but I wanted to say I was able to manually set up my partition using parted on the arch installer and this script allowed me to choose the boot and root partition https://github.com/picodotdev/alis

Arch. I prefer using an install script for the first part of customization https://github.com/picodotdev/alis

K3s is great, I use it on all of my personal clusters (here and here). It's lightweight and very easy to manage.

I have my Kubernetes homelab public on GitHub, everything is automated and defined as code. Hope it will help you get started and see what's possible.

So I 've got inspired by https://github.com/khuedoan/homelab and initially after lurking this sub for a while I came up with a plan to consider some of these solutions: - openmediavault as a VM to use 2x4TB /w ext4 & mergerFS or TrueNAS in RAID1 - I think mergerFS gives more options to increase storage with extra drives later, but I don't plan to hoard lots of data. Also rather opted for tiered cache via SSD to save some power but if such lot of VMs would write this would work? - nextcloud VM to easiely manage files via browser and have mobile app sync for photos with some kind of gallery plugins etc - I think this may be optional if there's other solution as nextcloud seems to not be light. Or something like Seafile would be enough? - kubernetes - k3s/microk8s single VM node or 2 VM nodes - would I need more? and so - can then openmediavault be used as a storage for it like TrueNAS? - Rancher - if used k3s - I quite liked the UI of rancher desktop, more than portainer when I tried with microk8s, but I don't pass on using something else, eg. Lens - Gitea - for hosting code - tekton / teamcity - for running tests and commit build hooks - fluxCD / argoCD - for deploying builds to kubernetes

Here's my project (running on 4 mini PC) that I'm using for learning and self-hosting https://github.com/khuedoan/homelab, it's fully automated from empty disk to operating services.

You can checkout my repo If you'd like to do the same for your homelab (it's also modular so you can just use the OS installation part)

Here're the links to the Markdown source and the web view.

You can checkout my Kubernetes homelab, it's fully automated from empty disk, very customizable and extensible.
