  1. I've bought the similar mini PC, with N100 CPU. I'm planning to install CasaOS on it because I have no experience with proxmox. Looks like a simple option, compared to this. What do you think?

  2. Shouldn't you set the Media directory as read-write for the Jellyfin LXC container? While Jellyfin indeed only needs read access in order to play media, it does quite a bit of writing onto those directories when scraping metadata from the internet since, by default, Jellyfin stores this metadata as .NFO files plus cover art directly into the videos directories themselves.

  3. There is a bit harder way to run Jellyfin with hardware acceleration as a Docker container at the same LXC with other containers and without doing that chmod 777 on the host. You will have to deal with "idmap", but it should be safer.

  4. great vid. please continue this proxmox series! i got the exact same mini pc to replace all my dockers etc from rpi and offload things like plex and jelly from my synology.

  5. Only nitpick, proxmox is a hypervisor that runs on debian. I did something similar recently, pi hole, jellyfin and HA on an N100 so those services don't go down if I'm mucking about with my 'main' proxmox server. Solid video.

  6. It'd been years since I used Ubuntu and I discovered in researching what distros supported ZFS that it was the only Linux distro that supported it natively. I work in data professionally and decided to use it at home.
    I was absolutely floored when I found how much it's improved since 18. I am still surprised that the desktop version doesn't enable UFW by default but that's a one CLI line fix.
    It's been fast , sits at 1.8gigs @idle and the ZFS with 32gigs of ram gives mind melting performance w/all the data integrity. I'll sing their praises from the street corner if they ask me 😅 wtf is up with Debian lately…

  7. You say in the beginning that you find the Ubuntu template working better then the Debian one, what was the difference for you?
    I just put together a N100 based system and still working on how to setup different things. My main issues is mainly manage storage and how to get access to it from VMs and LXC`s. So many ways to do, cant decide:)

  8. Portainer is awesome. Yes I'd like to see your containers. I recently found Marius on the interwebs and his page is helping me learn what containers are out there.. the only useful ones I've found for me so far is Stirling PDF, heimdal, and portainer, along with teaching us how to get pi-hole to work on the Nas 🎉
