Hey, your last write up was helpful for setting up the RAM and SSD. Those things are wedged in the mini in a somewhat confusing way.
Installed 22.04.2 (that part was easy!) Now fully synced with systemd service for bitcoin and tor. My next step will be LND. Going with that because most comfortable with it.
Have not got to setting up lightning as a service. Was previously using parts of this tutorial by alex b.
cron/nohup # Start LND on boot @reboot nohup /home/ubuntu/go/bin/lnd > /dev/null 2> /home/ubuntu/.lnd/err.log &
systemd gist
Not sure whether to use cron or systemd. Any thoughts?

Hey mate, thanks for the feedback.
I am honestly debating if I will go ahead and install LND on my node yet. I will need to install Electrum Server before and see if I have enough space on the SSD. If i decide to go that route, it will be Chapter 4. I would definately install it using official release binaries.
I am glad that my little write up were useful. I want to make sure that my months of research can be sum up in a short concise matter and help other plebs.
