My new laptop that I’m wiping Windows 11 Pro off of and replacing with Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS is only hours away from delivery.

I’ve got the roadmap written for the OS install on an encrypted partition, establishing and testing a reliable image backup/restoration routine with Clonezilla before I install a bunch of new tools, enabling simple firewall and VPN functionality, importing the root certificate, and establishing SSH connectivity to my node.

I hope it goes well. Can’t wait to relegate my main desktop Windows box to being a glorified filing cabinet, backup computer and largely offline gaming rig.
