Wow wow wow, you guys are light years ahead of me in the equipment department. I plan to learn and utilize a lot of that stuff but I was more interested in the smaller everyday things like chargers, cables, flash drives, adapters, etc lol still great info though. I was super intruided by supermicros server selection when I went down that rabbit hole. Truth is, I'm not nearly ready for a server yet.
But why though? I already have a ventoy usb drive for just exploring other distros, but I'm looking to actually learn and use other distros, just not one at a time :) It would ideal to have three workststions, one for each major distro I.e. arch, rhel, debian
If I utilize this route, do you believe it'd be more trouble than anything or should it hypothetically work just fine?
Darn, I do like to use flatpaks and occasionally snaps.... I know I know, most people hate them lol. But the big question for going the VM route is, do the distros I load up remember all my settings, configs, programs, etc? I want them to be like actual desktop distros where everything stays in tact and I'm not resetting everutime I boot up a VM iso
Oh and just to be sure, I need to use the live iso for the distro in order to resize partitions, is that right?
