Here's the interesting thing about that, though: It is *not* currently possible to run an Elemental downstream cluster in Harvester, but it should be possible to deploy a TalosLinux cluster on Harvester, though not as a Rancher downstream cluster, by provision nor adoption, since Rancher agent very much assumes you're running k3s/RKE2. But you could just spin up Talos VMs in Harvester with bridged networking, etc, and it should work.
Someone at SCaLE asked me about running #Rancher on #TalosLinux. Strictly speaking, it should be possible in #Harvester since I remember getting it to run in Eucalyptus. It is possible to do #Longhorn in Talos as well, but I don't know about k3s/RKE2, but it doesn't seem practical (or possible, or in any way supported) to do that over Sidero Metal for Talos or SLEMicro for Rancher.
I just added a #TalosLinux 1.9.3 (#Talos) #Vagrant box to the #ARM64 collection. This allows you to run Talos on your #AppleSilicon #MacBook. This is control-plane only, but you can patch the manifest to also run workloads.
You can find it right here:

Hat jemand Erfahrung mit Talos Linux? Wenn ja, was ist der Hauptzweck? Kann es auf dem Desktop nützlich sein?
Creating a #Kubernetes cluster in less than 10 minutes? What do use in 2025?
Let’s see and create a three node cluster in just minutes!

i'm very close to finishing my tofu/packer overhaul. the goals are twofold:
one: to configure secure boot and tpm based disk encryption, which should provide trusted boot
two: to reorganize the code as almost everything was in two huge tf files
when i'm done, i will update my public pve-talos repo for anybody to fork for their purposes
For those of you running #TalosLinux - where did you land for hone lab storage? The mayastor stuff as in the docs? Something else? Kinda leaning to what’s just in docs. Add a second drive to my vms and go. Don’t see much in docs/articles on using #Longhorn for storage. #kubernetes #k8s
Looking forward to migrate my Kubernetes setup to a micro-vm environment:

Already started to run pods in gvisor and now moving to KVM-based gvisor runtime, will be even more fun.
Mounting additional encrypted disks on #TalosLinux is not really much fun. But if you beat it hard enough with a stick, it'll work. I present to you: fstab/crypttab as a container!
https://git.shivering-isles.com/-/snippets/33
It's still a bit rough around the edges, and currently expects some of the tools to be present on the host, but I'm sure it only gets better from here. Why bother configuring volume mounts on your host when you can just do it in a container?
holy shit how didnt i know that there's a terraform (and opentofu) provider for talos??
this changes everything!

Apparently etcd is configured to prefer 10/8 for peer addresses and made a userspace IP network on that subnet (specifically 10.255.255/8), making wireguard configs on the right addresses and dooming etcd to prefer 10/8 addresses. Split brain. Please help #etcd #k8s #taloslinux
@alatiera @swick There are immutable distros where this can be true, such as #SideroMetal's #TalosLinux, but that's also an architecture where you aren't expected to directly interact with the OS. It's a different design philosophy from rpm-ostree's architecture.
With some time off, it is pet project time: reading up on #TalosLinux with @ciliumproject
@somegirlprivacy @omenos @e33io The ostree flavors of #Fedora recently got an --apply-live for rpm-ostree update. It's not a desktop distro, but #TalosLinux uses #kexec to boot into a newer kernel and runtime live without reboot.
Just got #JupyterHub deployed on prem on baremetal with #Kubernetes using #SideroMetal + #TalosLinux with #MetalLB, #Traefik, and #caddyserver for the networking.
@lobsters #TalosLinux is good stuff!
Got a #Kubernetes cluster provisioned on bare metal servers with #SideroLabs #TalosLinux.
Today, I replaced the legacy OS that shipped on this new #Ryzen 7 box with #Fedora #Kinoite #Linux and got #Kubernetes running on it with #TalosLinux.
(plz hire me)
