Totally agree! I’m not a programmer and I have several services running in my home server. I’m just curious and have used Linux for a decade as a normal user. With just these 3 basic knowledge skills you’re good to go.

This was my media server and kodi player for like 3 years…still have my Pi 1 lying around. Now I have a shitty Chinese desktop I built this year with i5 3rd. Gen with 8gb ram

It was! I still have mine somewhere in the house. It was my kodi media player for a long time.

Hey man I have no idea if it is the same, I’m a noon, but I had issues with a kernel update recently with my Debian home server and lost Ethernet too. I couldn’t fix but I reverted the kernel update and voila my ethernet started working again. If this bothers you and like me you don’t have much knowledge years you could try that .

Yeah once I forgot I had an external drive on one of the USB ports on my PC and created an Ubuntu drive with dd and just sent it do /dev/sdb …lost all movies I had on it. After that I always check with df -h or fdisk -l

Hey just passing to say I saw your post and decided to update my Debian server …took me an hour to find that the rtl driver just stopped working and I had to revert to older kernel…never done it before haha…

Arr!
