#incusos — Public Fediverse posts

  1. So I saw a blog post linked on here the other week about someone's homelab where they use #Incus to run all their containers and VMs. And I've fallen into the rabbit hole.

    That post: linderud.dev/blog/personal-inf

    Anyway, Incus is the fork/successor to #LXD which as recently as last year they released #IncusOS which is a very slimmed down OS for running multiple types of containers and VMs. A bit like #Proxmox in a sense.

    What I like about the distro:
    - Immutable
    - A-side/B-side partition layout for friendlier updates
    - Requires Secure Boot + TPM, resulting in encrypted drives by default
    - ZFS. I've loved ZFS for many years.

    It really seems like this was built for edge type deployments where secure "appliance" like things really excel yet still a net benefit elsewhere.

    Since vSphere was killed, this feels pretty damn close to what I liked about it.

    Can already run VMs along side "System Containers" (shared kernel + init system) and "App Containers" (what everyone calls "Docker"). I see on the roadmap support for MicroVMs (OCI container + individual kernel).

    I run all of my stuff bar storage on #k3s on baremetal but there's times when I need a VM or different container behaviour than it offers.

  2. Hello la Mastosphère ! (C'est comme ça qu'on dit?)
    C'est l'heure de ma #présentation.

    Formation informatique en génie logiciel, le partage est quelque chose d'important pour moi. Je suis dans un Linux User Group en Savoie, et j'ai créé ce compte par curiosité pour le #fediverse.

    Un seul objectif ici : apprendre, et partager si je peux.

    Ce que je découvre en ce moment : le Fediverse, la 2FA avec #yubikey, j'apprends l' #allemand, le #selfhosting avec #IncusOS et je veux essayer de changer de clavier et de disposition pour utiliser #ergol.

    Pas très organisé, je fais tout en même temps en fonction de mon humeur 🙃

  3. Just because #IncusOS is out doesn't mean I'm going to be stopping the #Incus live streams! This week's will be about adding #Linstor support! youtube.com/live/jge4uL3zymo?f
