@opensource l am completely new in the world of Linux. I wish to build up a computer having Proxmox, MX Linux and casa os, also retaining windows.

Can you please guide me in the process, how to start building one right from the scratch ?

    This is a tall order of you’ve never worked w bootloader’s or at least Linux wo x-windows.

    If you share your intentions; we’d be better able to help you reach your goals.

        That would explain it, especially the multi-distro request; that’s not a thing for newbies ime

          Some people are driven primarily by ambition, it’s not unheard of for a newbie to bite off much much more than they can chew. Depends on their humility

      @eldavi basically l wish to create a cloud ☁️ storage, something like GitHub and dropbox, where l can store a lot of data, including large sized video files, which l can access easily from anywhere and on any device. Proxmox would help me in this or no ?

        these goals are achievable without proxmox, but there’s nothing wrong with using it; however it will give you a much steeper learning curve if you’ve never managed KVM/QEMU based virtual machines or software defined networking before.

        why proxmox? how do you intend to use mx linux, casa os, and windows? do you intend to use multi-booting with proxmox or using the each os as a proxmox virtual machine?
