  • It ain't much, but it's honest work (my old pc repurposed for HTPC)

    I'm running minimalistic arch, which I provisioned with ansible playbook (this took me around 70% off all the time it went into). For apps I have kubernetes (one node k3s) "cluster" (planning to expand in time) and the main thing inside is plex with GPU hw encoding (It worked better then I expected). Next I plan to put nexctcloud and wireguard in it.

    Hi, sure, here it is https://github.com/peter-si/arch/blob/master/disk-bootstrap.sh. But it will never be final I guess. Also don't mind the readme too much, I didn't update it, since I forked it. Also check the original from pigmonkey (I did end up rewriting most of it)

    you are right, ssh-add might the best solution. I am using it to automatically provision a local pc. I have a script which formats/partitions/encrypts disks and then runs ansible inside a chroot (so I would have to run ssh-add inside it). That part is still kind of manual and I wanted to fully automate it
