How did you set up subnet advertisements on the router, and which subnets? Did you touch the ACL in the tailnet’s admin console?

On the home PC, did you accept advertised routes with the Tailscale client?

What happens when you ping a host on the LAN using tailscale ping ADDR? What happens when you try to tracert or tracepath to it?

Perhaps there was an easier lighter-weight way of doing this?

sshuttle does exactly that. It’s basically a VPN that uses SSH tunnelling. If you have a host in the same network as the target machine, and you can SSH into it, sshuttle can route all TCP traffic between you and the target (or a subnet) through the host without having to bind local ports manually.

sshuttle -r ssh_server <targets/subnets...>

Minio is about to get Redis’d.

I use self-hosted services in the following categories as much as possible…

That question could really use a “not applicable” option. I don’t operate any home automation solutions, so any answer from me would be invalid, and neutral answers because the item is not relevant will appear the same as neutral answers because I use both self-hosted and externally hosted solutions (e.g. Mullvad for privacy and Tailscale to get around CGNAT).

No.

The local machine boots using PXE. Clonezilla itself is transferred from a TFTP server as a squashfs and loaded into memory. When that OS boots, it mounts a network share using CIFS that contains the image to be installed. All of the local SATA disks are named sda, sdb, etc. A script determines which SATA disk is the correct one (must be non-rotational, must be a specific size and type), deletes every SCSI device (which includes ATA devices too), then mounts only the chosen disk to make sure it’s named sda.

Clonezilla will not allow an image cloned from a device named sda to be written to a device with a different name – this is why I had to make sure that sda is always the correct SSD.

There was no need to physically disconnect anything. We didn’t actually use any SCSI devices, but Linux (and in turn, the Debian-based Clonezilla) uses the SCSI kernel driver for all ATA devices, so SATA SSDs also appeared as SCSI hosts and could be handled as such. If I had to manually unplug and reconnect hundreds of physical cables, I’d send my resignation directly to my boss’ printer.

I presume you have had to run on RAM, considering you removed all drives

Yes. Mass deployment using Clonezilla in an extremely heterogenous environment. I had to make sure the OS got installed on the correct SSD, and that it was always named sda, otherwise Clonezilla would shit itself. The solution is a hack held together by spit and my own stubbornness, but it works.

Only if you’re working with SCSI hardware. On Linux, SATA (and probably PATA) devices use the same kernel driver as SCSI, and appear on the system as SCSI hosts. You can find them in /sys/class/scsi_disk or by running lsblk -o NAME,HCTL.

Broke: /dev/sd*
Woke: /dev/disk/by-id/*
Bespoke: finding the correct device’s SCSI host, detaching everything, then reattaching only the one host to make sure it’s always /dev/sda. (edit) In software. SATA devices also show up as SCSI hosts because they use the same kernel driver.

I’ve had to use all three methods. Fucking around in /sys feels like I’m wielding a power stolen from the gods.

The minimum spec is whatever e-waste you can find that still powers on.

My home server has an i3-4160, 10 gigabytes of mis-matched RAM, a ten-year-old 240 GB SSD with 36000 hours on it, and three 1 TB hard drives in a RAID5 array each with ~25000 power-on hours. It runs Proxmox on the metal with a virtualized OPNsense, Nextcloud, and Jellyfin server (plus smaller services). Jank levels are high, but not fatal, and it was mostly free.

Gparted. I’m pretty sure it’s bundled with Mint. Identify which partition it is, then simply delete it. Then you can create a new partition on the newly unallocated area or extend an existing partition onto it.

You might have to edit the bootloader’s boot entries and remove the Windows boot manager.

That’s not the truth. It’s one of infinitely many truths. They hated him because Jesus didn’t understand how implicit type casting between int and bool worked.

You're officially an asshole.

I’ve used it for exactly three minutes and this is already amazing. I hope it gets integrated into ReVanced and Newpipe.
