Installing Linux on an old Thinkpad and working out how to use a Raspberry Pi to flash the bios and install coreboot firmware instead of whatever is on there. I'm going to run a Bitcoin node on there and use the machine as my sole access point for my cold wallet. Basically, trying to create a clean, open-source, no BS machine.
I've never used Linux before, so this is proving to be both challenging and rewarding.
Cool, I've used my Pi 3 like a VPS for working for some time.
Now I use it as a retrogaming console with Lakka.
Linux is really fun once you learn it!
