Is anyone running diskless Alpine in production? It seems optimal to me but extremely uncommon.

In the past I’ve tried running a small USB drive in rented bare metal w/ diskless alpine, but the machine seemed to reboot randomly IIRC.

Alpine is awesome, but as the article says it is terribly badly documented. On my todo list is contributing some better RPi install docs, and a more sensible A/B boot partition process.

I did for a while on a raspberry pi. It was my home server for some months but i ended up not using it.

I am using this for my home lab. Extremely useful.
