I received my 3 additional TerraMaster F5-422.

Time to install CentOS Stream in preparation for Ceph Luminous.

I intend to run ceph-ansible stable-4.0 on my Fedora 31 Workstation.

Since F31 comes with Ansible 2.9, but ceph-ansible 4.0 requires ansible>=2.8.8,<2.9, I simply used python -m venv ….

This is my braindump.

This blog now runs on CentOS 8

I bough a UniFi Switch 16 XG, Board Revision 13 (UniFi Software reports 13, while in the pic below I see 11, odd).

These are my notes on initial bringup.

I installed Fedora 29 on my TerraMaster F5-422 for a quick Ceph test.

Obviously if you plan to use Fedora on this hardware for anything more than a quick test, use the latest version! Or try RHEL7 or CentOS Stream on it.

This is my braindump.

I finally received my F(x)tec Pro¹.

After checking with the shipped Android that the device was not DOA and applying all updates, I reflashed it with SailfishOS

These are my notes on installing Sailfish OS 3.2.1.20 community build.

I reinstalled my TerraMaster F5-422 with CentOS Stream.

I bought a TerraMaster F5-422.

These are my notes on initial bringup.

The following post is heavily based on Fedora on the ODROID-HC2

It is is about installing CentOS Userland armv7hl on an ODROID-HC2 (from a Fedora 31 x86_64 workstation).

The aim is to get the ODROID in a state where one can ssh as root to the host.

Both initial setup over serial and installing without using a serial console are described.

Since 32 GiB SO-DIMMs are cheap at the moment, I decided to try an upgrade my ThinkPad X270 from it’s current 16 GiB RAM to 32.

I added a RLY-8 to my home lab. It has 8 controllable relays and can be talked to via network.

These are my notes on initial bringup.

As planned, this September we doubled the RAM in our main hypervisor at home from 128 GiB to 256 GiB.
