Personal Cloud PR 1

in #blog2 years ago (edited)

This references PR

I added a new README for the infrastructure the personal cloud will run on and document how to immutably reproduce it. This documentation is still ongoing. It's by no means final. I want to add more details on

  • where to find the k3os repo
  • How to run the scripts
  • What is actually happening to construct the VM
  • Advantages of this over using rancher desktop

My plans after that is finished is to explore other aspects of the infrastructure like VPN setup and discuss the decisions behind that.

3x Mac Minis

K3S

The minis will be used to construct a k3s cluster using k3os. Mac minis are using the M1 chip, so they're running ARM64 instead of x64 architecture. This means, to build x64 architecture software or run k3s as though it's on x64 architecture, I will have to run k3os in a virtual machine.

I included scripts taken from the k3os project in scripts that are used to create the virtual machines on the mac minis. Once k3os is running, they can be configured to run as cluster together.
