Hey! Long story short, I'm interested in Self hosting stuff and want to wet my feet a bit with a spare laptop I have. The main nvme drive is used by windows 10, and it has a 250 Go SD card.

I've been trying to install TrueNAS Scale and YunoHost on the SD card to no avail. I have seen people on forums say they had stuff installed on an SD card but I'm starting to doubt it.

Can it work? I think I need some help but I don't know what info might be useful.

Yes our servers running esxi boot from an SD card

But. That’s not to say you won’t have issues.

As others are saying distro matters

Unraid works this way too. Its perfectly fine as long as you keep frequent writes off it. Use ramdisk when you need scratch space.
