Free project idea: A Qubes OS alternative built on Bottlerocket.

  Why Bottlerocket? Why not just use Alpine, Void, NixOS, Arch, etc instead?

    I've fallen in love with Alpine. I'm using it on my bare bone servers running from a ram disk (USB drive) hosting Docker containers and even qemu VMs. All on encrypted zfs volumes. Totally love it

      Can you recommend any tutorials or blog posts on some of this? Really interested in it. Otherwise I'll search for it, thanks for the information.

        Here are some links for you that I think would be useful for a related setup, however I can't speak for the user that posted that. The headless installation should follow the same principles of using a RAMDisk though. https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi_-_Headless_Installation https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi_-_Headless_In... https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_Linux_with_root_on_ZFS_with_native_encryption https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_Linux_with_root_on_... https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Docker https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Docker https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Install_Alpine_in_Qemu https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Install_Alpine_in_Qemu

        If you want to dive deeper, I have written a blog post about how to pxe boot alpine in your home (with central config storage) https://blog.haschek.at/2019/build-your-own-datacenter-with-pxe-and-alpine.html https://blog.haschek.at/2019/build-your-own-datacenter-with-...
