=====2025-11-04===== I've just replaced the PSU. Duckling has a 500 GB SSD. The plan is: * Debian Trixie * Pay close attention to what gets installed; if I `apt install` something, I need to write it down here. * Pay close attention to configuration changes; mostly, I want to make them to all of my systems. ==Needs== * can do up to 5 gigabit VTEPs * can put the firewall on it ==Wants== * SRP target. Maybe iSCSI but probably not. * Playground for NVMe-oF target, discovery, and boot. ==Wont's== * GPU server, since there's inadequate AVX support. * General HV; not enough RAM and I don't have a SAN * Media desktop. It's not 2018; use the i5 for that when you get more RAM for it. ====The Plan==== - Partition * GPT or MBR? (Does EFI get me anything?) * 64 GiB partition for OS volume * 8 GiB for swap * Snapshots to fill - OS * Debian 12 * Extra packages and applications * Configuration files--**Keep a list!** - Services * SRP; NFS-RDMA
