Re: [Astlinux-users] Resource requirements for 150 seat system

[Michael K. <li...@mk...>]

Hi Michael,

The main point with real servers could be, that there might be a lot of drivers missing in AstLinux (especially harddisk controllers and NICs).
While there are all drivers needed for virtualization already included within AstLinux. 

You could easily buy a server, install the Debian-based free Proxmox VE and then install AstLinux in Proxmox without any driver issues.
