<p>Gordo,</p>
<p>That _does_ look interesting. I'll be out of town for Part 1, but
I'll certainly make it for part 2.</p>
<p>Since you plan on running Debian 12 on the Pi, I guess you are
going to surrender to Snap, since Debian doesn't support a native
version of incus (or LXD). Just a comment, but Alpine Linux _does_
have a native version of incus, but then your Flightaware
software may not work (unless you run debian in a container), as
Alpine Linux uses Musl C libraries rather than glibc.</p>
<p>Please send a description to Cody and me when you get a chance.</p>
<p>thanks, it looks like an interesting project.</p>
<p>Craig....</p>

<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">My original presentation
proposal is demonstrating containerizing the components of
feeding flight data (ADS-B) to Flightradar24.com,
FlightAware, etc. I realized that I'm doing a lot of
interesting stuff to my Pi that I could share, but it
would be a lot for one presentation.</span></p>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">Would anyone be interested
in the following split?</span></p>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">Part I (Feb 14, 2026) -
Preparing the Pi:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Boot from external SSD,
with root and container Logical Volume Manager (LVM)
volumes in an encrypted partition, and an unencrypted boot
partition.</li>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Install and configure,
</li>
<ul>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Debian 12 (Bookworm)
on the SSD, including some sensible hardening and good
practices.</li>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Dropbear SSH server,
to facilitate unlocking the encrypted partition
remotely.</li>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Cloudflare Zero Trust
(formerly Cloudflare Tunnel) client, cloudflared.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">Part II (TBD) -
Containerizing the Feeders:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Install and configure:
</li>
<ul>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Incus, a fork of Linux
Containers (LXC).</li>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">dump1090, fr24feed,
piaware, etc. in containers.</li>
</ul>
<li style="font-family: monospace;">Reconfigure cloudflared
to provide access to the built-in web servers within the
feeders.</li>
</ul>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">I'm still working my way
through all of this, so the outline is subject to change
should I run into any road blocks or my priorities change.</span></p>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">If there's enough interest
in two sessions, I'll send Craig a description of the
first session for posting. I'm fairly flexible for
delivering the second session, but I don't want it to
replace the Feb 28th "Q&A and Assistance" meeting to
give me some prep time.</span></p>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">Take care, Gordo</span></p>
<p class="pre" style="margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px;"><span
style="font-family: monospace;">P.S. Even split into two,
sadly I won't have time to discuss IPv6 or non-systemd
setup. Sorry Craig! ;)</span></p>
