Great question!
I ended up pretty much using Umbrel on the RPi4 to experiment to see how well it ran - once I decided to upgrade, I swapped to trying Start9, and I pretty much just started over on it since it’s a separate system from Umbrel. But I do plan on transferring what I can from it to the new proxmox/debian based system I plan on setting up for it.
I’ve heard of mynode, but I started messing around with Start9 and Umbrel late last year/early this year - they’re definitely worth experimenting with, and certainly worth repurposing an RPi4 for something a bit more stable. Umbrel on my RPi4 kept crashing which sparked all of these OS questions and mini PC journey lol.
Hope you’re able to swap that RPi4!
Beelink S12 - I tried 2 different models of another brand but that one didn’t work.
Did some research and decided to try it off this list cause the price point was reasonable for the power - under the Beelink section:
I haven’t heard of proxmox, but in the midst of building a slim homelab - I’m definitely going to look into it. I’ve been wanting to try more reliable virtualization but haven’t had the time to dive in.
Thanks again for this starting point, it’s really a big help. Can’t wait to tinker.
My stack is Debian.

I suggest a Debian base + proxmox install. Then virtualize ubuntu if needed/wanted.
Very cool. Debian seems to be the one I’m gonna go with.
Tyvm! 🤘🫂
Tyvm! That was my initial impression, so I think I will give Debian a try. I’ve been really curious about it but really never had a reason to play with it since I had Ubuntu machines. Good to know there’s no steep learning curve.
Ty again!
OR -
- would running Debian or Ubuntu in a VM on Win11 OS be a more ideal solution?
I’m more familiar with Ubuntu, but I’ve read up on Debian being more FOSS leaning.

You don’t - it’s a pretty neat automatic zap-split service for the community people sometimes do.
