I'm probably going to pave over this server again!

Had been looking at [[Unraid]] as a good baseline, including the way it can host Windows VMs.

### Ventoy

Found [[Ventoy]] and am going to attempt to pave over the Corsair 2TB USB-C NVMe drive I have.

Used `wget` to download the ventoy stuff and unpack it. None of the web gui stuff will work ATM because we have the server in a DMZ and I don't remember it's internal alternate IP address.

`networkctl status` is great for looking at all your network settings.

To get a list of disks / partitions under Ubuntu, use `lsblk`:

sudo lsblk -o NAME,FSTYPE,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL

OK, Ventoy installed. I thought [[Unraid]] would have an ISO, but the whole point is to have bootable USB, so they don't support that. I guess I'll go buy a USB key for this!

[[MiniPC PL63]] got wiped and Ubuntu Server installed.
