Seeking Advice: MicroOS Host with PCI Pass-through to GUI Guest
I have a development system with lots of RAM and cores that I use like a
server (i.e., several VM's and containers; none are production). To
separate my desktop from my VM's and containers more, I am considering
running MicroOS as a headless host with my desktop running as a guest VM
using PCI pass-through for the video. Some advantages are the ability to
reboot my desktop without disturbing the VM's and containers, and making
my desktop less critical or more disposable.
Does anyone here do that? Any advice?
Some Background:
RAM: 32GB
CPU: AMD 5950X, 16 physical cores (SMT off)
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT
Disk: 1TB
Network: 2 physical NICs
OS: Kalpa
