Which Linux for ESXi VMs

#1 Post by Witzker »

I'm new to Linux and all the server stuff have now installed an ESXi for testing on an old ThinkCenter M93P.

I used Ubuntu Debian and have now been confronted with Alpine through installation instructions.

Photon should also be interesting. I am now looking for a resource-saving "basis" for installing various apps.

The only thing I liked about proxmox was that you could easily create CTs (Linux containers) from templates and then start installing the APP straight away.

I am now looking for a similar possibility for ESXi to find resource-saving templates for the respective VMs.

Hence, my question

Which Linux distributions “speak the same language” ?
What can you recommend me for this purpose.?

Would like to start with several separate VMs.
Docker is still too suspicious for me. :wink:
