I'd like to learn some tips on how to do that... do you mean something like https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Installation#Diskless_Mode https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Installation#Diskless_Mode ?
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoYeah, exactly - as best as I can remember, and https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi seems to agree, Alpine on the pi defaults to a mode where it mosly loads itself into a ram disk on boot and just stays there. Which means that you're constrained on "disk" space (your root filesystem is no larger than ram), but if your workload fits in that then you have the advantage that after boot the system pretty much doesn't touch disk.
