• Can my computer run linux VM?

  If you still want to try it on a VM, I'd recommend assigning just 1 GB to it, coupled with a lightweight desktop environment, like XFCE (you can use Xubuntu). Source: almost 1 year ago

• Should I use Ubuntu 16 in 2023?

  To get a modern lightweight Linux experience you can use a recent version of one the Ubuntu flavours that is optimized for low-resource machines: either Xubuntu (with XFCE) or Lubuntu (with LXQt). Source: about 1 year ago

• OS question for new build DIY Nas

  I would personally prefer a hypervisor as the base OS and VMs for every role, like separate VM for NAS functionality, separate VM for media, etc. As per hypervisor, I would recommend taking a look at Proxmox as a good enough Linux-based and low-resource demanding hypervisor. Another Linux option would be pure KVM on any Linux distro you like + Cockpit and Cockpit machines (https://cockpit-project.org/) to manage VMs. Source: 7 months ago

  See title, and I prefer a interface thats opensource. I want to setup my nas system, controll services and maybe do terminal work aswell. Ive experimented with cockpit ( https://cockpit-project.org/ ) wondered if there are better or different tools out there. They have plugins I like but also mis. No minecraft stuff, no vm controll (They dropper docker for something else) Redhat ?!? Source: 9 months ago

• How to manage local logs

  No problem, journald is in fact structured logging and it provides all you need to do efficient searching, correlation and archival. There is actually a nice web interface too as part of cockpit-project.org although it is nothing like Kibana of course. Source: 12 months ago
