How to install Talos Linux in your homelab, from Docker to Proxmox

To install Talos Linux without touching hardware, talosctl cluster create docker brings up a two-node Kubernetes cluster in containers. On real machines or Proxmox three things change: you boot an Image Factory ISO, push the configuration with apply-config and run bootstrap exactly once. Everything is operated through an API, with no SSH.

What the TrueNAS Proxmox plugin does and when it pays off

Open Storage for Proxmox is a GPL-3.0 storage plugin you install on every Proxmox VE node. It creates one zvol per disk on TrueNAS 25.10, publishes it over iSCSI or NVMe/TCP through the API, with no SSH, and adds ZFS snapshots and clones. The current release is 2.1.23~beta3.

What PegaProx adds over the Proxmox VE 9 GUI

PegaProx 0.9.x is an AGPL-3.0 panel that manages several Proxmox VE 8 and 9 clusters, plus XCP-ng, from a single screen. It adds live migration across clusters, OIDC with Entra ID, a CVE scanner and one-click hardening on top of the stock GUI, which only covers one cluster at a time.
