Solved Quick DNS Question

I use 4GB on Mint and I use up all of the memory just with a web browser, so it really depends what you are doing. 6GB and I am pretty good, 4GB tends to be pretty tight for me.
Browsers are a killer, sure.

That's not bad, lots of them are 2GB which is really lean.
That's kind of why I got this one. Decent little computer for $279

It's been solid for me with ChromeOS running and another full desktop environment running along side it. I'm pretty impressed with it.

I got the BIOS set up so now I can boot from a live USB. Fedora 24 boots and runs fine but no sound drivers. I'll have to investigate.

Might be a great use case for Korora!

Ya I need to try it. I had a fedora 24 ISO already downloaded so I just used that.
That was one gripe I had with the crouton stuff, it's all Ubuntu based. And all of the "supported" released were ancient.
Now that I can have a RHEL system, I can use identity management on it

FreeIPA doesn't work with Ubuntu?

It supposedly does, it's much different and I haven't had success with it.

So both Korora and Fedora had issues with the screen flashing. Korora initially, and Fedora 24 after I did the updates. Not sure what was going on. So I switched to ElementaryOS Freya, and I'm using it right now. It's working out pretty well.

So Elementary didn't work either. ZeroTier couldn't install because of dependency issues. They are still on 14.04 and haven't released the 16.04 version yet. So I tried to manually run the ZeroTier setup by manually importing the GPG key and manually adding the repo. Didn't work, so I finally settled on Ubuntu Gnome. I've used it before and I can have my default extensions that I like using. Everything is set up and working now.

I would simplify things and maybe zone for a separate zone for ZT.

All of that Ubuntu community "it's cool to be old" crap kills anything built on Ubuntu.

I can't believe I didn't do this a while back. No more chroots to run real applications. I also have my home folder on a 128GB USB 3 flash drive that's pretty tiny. It's a pretty nice and cheap setup.

Unless you are an actual end users, I can't imagine wanting to use ChromeOS instead of a "real" OS.
