On today’s episode of TrueNAS Tech Talk, drama is circulating in the open source and self-hosted over some changes, but Kris and Chris are happy that the latest TrueNAS 25.04.1 release isn’t among it. They’ll dig into what happened with the changes on the object storage software MinIO removing a huge chunk of functionality, Plex and user privacy, and share some thoughts on right-to-repair and right-to-own.

As said in podcast, LXC is great because it allows doing anything you want in user-space while still being isolated and not breaking base system.

Now the hard part is remaining. How to customize kernel-space without breaking base system. For example safely adding kernel drivers like Coral gasket-dkms.
Good luck figuring that out :slight_smile:

Ahem… PCIe passthrough into a VM

True. But if possible I would like to avoid the VM overhead and keep things in Docker or LXC. :sweat_smile:

Not to mention passthrough limits the usage of the device to only single VM. But if used via Docker or LXC I can use it in multiple apps/instances.
