   Okay, I think I'm gonna give Proxmox a try, for real, just to see why people talk about it so much.

   With that said, I'm looking for an Ansible role, or something similar, to configure Proxmox itself (not only deploy stuff in it). I've been looking at this one (link below, scrapping their suggestion for the ntp role), so let me know if there are others.

     RBAC definitions may or may not apply to your needs.

     Storage definitions almost never will apply to your needs.

     "BYO certificates for the Web GUI" is literally "in the GUI".

     Watchdog modules like IPMI are deprecated, Proxmox uses softdog.

     And so on. All this will fog your understanding of what and how Proxmox does.

     I don't use ZFS, and I prefer to have my configuration via automation, to make it reproducible in case of disaster. Thanks.

     This is completely overengineered. Also you seem to lose ZFS because it starts with Debian.

     Just put an USB stick with the ISO installer from https://www.proxmox.com/en/downloads into the box and start it.

     In case you're missing my technical posts, just know that this thread about Proxmox is directly related to my recently acquired obsession for the Satisfactory game. It doesn't run on Raspberry Pi, so I had to get an Intel mini desktop, which is completely overpowered for just a gaming server, so I'll merge the two interests

     Never heard of that before, but even if it worked I bet eventually I would get bottlenecked by the Pi's limited RAM. Right now I'm using 6GB. The docs say it could get close to 12-16GB in the late game stages, which is much more than the Pi RAM (8GB). But thanks for teaching me something new!

     @badnetmask did you try it with Box86? 😀 I successfully ran a teamspeak server that way, but maybe this game is more power hungry.
