Hating on Rocky is going to be popular and he has earned a lot of it. He also did a lot to turn around a team that nobody in Chicago cared about and made them relevant again. Like most people in life, he is a complicated individual.

Because they something to lock you in to Ubuntu. They want Ubuntu to be the only thing that uses snaps. They want to get snaps to be an Ubuntu exclusive feature, and once they can start convincing some random closed source devs to ship in only the snap format they have a hook to keep you on Ubuntu. And they want those random random closed source devs to be focused on more of the corporate world so they can sell some support licenses.

Download the netinst image. You get the option of installing a de or none entirely.

Thank you, very helpful! In this case the vm is just a file server. The bulk of the traffic is for Time Machine. In the past I had the host manage samba shares on btrfs but was exploring delegating that to a vm and playing with zfs. This is all home network admin fun, and your response gave some good info.

 

I run several VMs in Libvirt, host is Debian 12. I'm want to create one dedicated to Samba sharing. What is the best way to expose more disks to a QEMU host? I have 6 SSDs I want to utilize on this VM.

  1. Creating a filesystem hardware node (virtiofs or virtio-9p)?
  2. A physical disk exposed to the VM via a Storage hardware node?
  3. Something more exotic like a zfs storage pool?

Best for me is more about reliability than anything else. I have tried sharing folders before using the Filesystem hardware node and Plan 9 but it was a little wonky when it came to permissions. I may not have set it up right, however.

It's 1a for me as the worst decision in modern history, 1b is legalizing direct to consumer medicine marketing.
