Linux Home Server

If you have a Single-board computer (SBC) - such as a Raspberry Pi or an Odroid - then this guide will help you configure a 24x7 Linux server for home use. Here we configure the server with Ubuntu LTS.

This guide was written using the Markdown markup language. The flavour of Markdown used in the guide is the Pandoc flavour, so some features in the document (like definition lists) do not render correctly in the Github flavour. Nevertheless, you can still browse Markdown files in GitHub.

As well, recent Pandoc-generated HTML and PDF files are available on github.io.

This is a work in progress, so expect more sections of the guide to be fleshed out in coming days.
