As pointed by @oO.o my question would be best placed here so here it is :
Hi,
I’m rather new here…
To give some hints on which district I would be more comfortable with here it is:
I have already 2 xenserver, one ubuntu server 18.04 does Virt with qemu on amd cpu but didn’t yet try the gpu virt ( didn’t succeed it on 16.04 with intel i7, i think the qemu was too old or maybe I wasn’t good enough), and one proxmox server nearly finish.
I don’t mind digging my way into config files but without any hint or specific steps it is somewhat impossible for me to find my way from times to times like for my virt problem on i7 6700k.
I’m quite used to go with fedora too since I’m using qubes os on my laptops, I have only one archlinux box at the moment. All my boxes are in cli. Just qubes os and sometimes ubuntu or in graphic mode.
And so my new setup would be on a i7 7700k with nvidia 970. It’s a desktop that I will use partly for a hackingtosh project, partly on Linux(different nvme/ssd so no worries there). I need to do some development with JetBrains python c++ the usual, browsing, and also qemu gpu virt for gaming under windows.
I’m restricting my choice with ubuntu, archlinux, fedora. So which should I go with? I really need some explicit doc on the one I choose to not have to find by myself after 2 weeks or months of digging around…
And so maybe another thing to consider would be :
But will I have any problem to set up my qemu virt with pci pass through for guy with one of those?
I notice that many of the test of wendell is I think fedora… And qubes use fedora too. I don’t have any preference for arch Linux nor fedora, I use both on regular basis just not for that, that’s why I m asking? Maybe one is more complete of the other? Like arch Linux because of the AUR PACKAGE like the Spotify stuff for example things like that and fedora mora secure?
And to continue my reasoning, maybe fedora is preferable for a host and arch Linux in one of the qemu vm? Or the opposite? Because as I said, I’ve broken my teeth in ubuntu 16.04 and pci pass through for qemu so I would like something that one of you guys are 100% sure that it doesn’t cause any problem
if you have any advice please do share.
And sorry I’m posting from my phone so not the best page setup…
