This is to capture information about my current hardware and setup as it may be useful to other new or inexperienced users.

Total $482

I have these selected at https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vf9nqm

Hoping that these will be suitable with the case I already have Rosewill R379-M MATX

My current plan is to install Ubuntu 22.04

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/nvme0n1 Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 465.76 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Disk model: Samsung SSD 980 500GB Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 16384 bytes / 131072 bytes


Partitioning

  • apparently UEFI Bios tries to find a partition in a GPT-partitioned boot device. This partition needs to be tagged with "EFI System" and also needs to be formatted with FAT filesystem.
  • I ran "sudo gparted &"
  • used Device menu to create partition table to gpt
  • followed https://askubuntu.com/a/743098


Installing Ubuntu

  • normal installation, download updates while installing, install third-party software & Secure Boot (chose password)
  • installation type / something else
  • chose /dev/mapper/main-vg-swap as a swap partition using "Change..." button, selected /dev/mapper/main-vg-root for boot loader installation, placed cursor on /dev/mapper/main-vg-root > "change..." to ext4 journalling file system, format the partition, mount point:/boot --- /dev/mapper/main-vg-systemA to ext4 journaling file system, format the partition, mount point:/


MythTV i'm installing MythTV via the Mythbuntu Control Panel. I'm following instructions at Mythbuntu_Control_Panel.

  • sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mythcp/mcp
  • sudo apt-get update
  • sudo apt install mythbuntu-control-panel

The first sudo needed my password, but the others were executed soon enough that I didn't need to enter it again.
