Summary
In this chapter, we covered a couple of different installation scenarios in great detail. As with most Linux distributions, Ubuntu Server is scalable and able to be installed on a variety of server types. Physical devices, VMs, and even the Raspberry Pi have versions of Ubuntu available. The process of installation was covered step by step, and you should now have an Ubuntu Server instance of your own to configure as you wish. Also in this chapter, we covered determining the role of your server, the process of creating bootable media, and a walkthrough of setting up Ubuntu Server on your server device (as well as on a Raspberry Pi). You’re now on your way to Ubuntu Server mastery!
In the next chapter, we’ll show you how to manage users. You’ll be able to create them, delete them, change them, manage password expiration, and more. We will also cover permissions so that you can determine what your users are allowed to do on your server. See you there...
