My Home Server v1.0

I plan to build and maintain a cheap home server. Here I document my design choices, configuration, and maybe even teach a few Linux things.

For version 1.0, I only used a VM. Then I switched to an old laptop. It is a weak dual core Intel Atom N570 with 1GB RAM and 300GB disk.
