  • Debian 13 Trixie with BTRFS

    Introduction

    I am installing Debian 13 Trixie (recently released as Debian Stable) on a Virtual machine (VM) using the B-TRee File System (BTRFS). The Debian installer supports installing a BTRFS volume to a partition, and creating a single sub volume within. With the terminal I will be modifying a BTRFS volume that spans multiple drives, and contains multiple sub volumes.

    A portion of this work will need to be done outside the Debian installer. The most common methods involve either mid install break out or post install. I have not found any information on pre install procedures for this. Looking at the way the Debian installer works this may not be possible.

    In this article I will be doing a post install file system modification. To me this seems the most straight forward and easy to understand method.

  • Hodgepodge Server Build Video Series

    Another collection of some YouTube videos. In this case the videos cover building a network attached media server totally out of spare parts that people were going to toss. So basically with a free Operating System this server cost absolutely nothing but a few hours of work.
    This article should include all the videos presented in the correct order. These are only a portion of the videos on my server playlist, so feel free to check the other videos out at your convenience.
