Install Proxmox and a RancherOS VM with Portainer to manage docker containers

WARNING MAY BE INCORRECT AND INCOMPLETE, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

I have tried this setup and although it works and may be good for ceratin circumstances I would advise using ubuntu as the base with docker, docker-compose, and portainer. https://gist.github.com/mow4cash/626275e095f7f90898944a85d66b3be6

TrueNAS

I will be moving from FreeNAS jails to ubuntu with docker, docker compose, and portainer. FreeNAS support and updates are lacking. There are many advantages to making the switch and with ZFS on linux I think FreeNAS may be a thing of the past. Stay tuned for a new guide of my latest setup. Check out my other gists for progress on the switch. https://gist.github.com/mow4cash/626275e095f7f90898944a85d66b3be6
