I just want something as a proof of concept that this can be for me. I am aware I am the problem.

But everything is wildly difficult for me. I pulled back from docker after realising it was above my skillset, I just want to try home assisstant with a few lights but fair enough it is beyond me.

I opted to install a game, fail. Learn about wine and bottles. Start a bottle and get told I only have 8gb free in directory, I cannot for the life of me see where it is getting that from.

Please god someone tell me there is a step by step for the fucking imbeciles out there on where to start!?

    Mortal Kombat Fitgirl repack.

    I’d use Lutris for that, it’s a rather automated process, you create a new entry, it asks for the installer, and usually recognises the correct executable for the game.

    Literally just setting up docker to then install HA.

    Personally, I prefer to run HA in a VM rather than Docker, especially if you’re experimenting, IIRC with docker installation it doesn’t support backup and restore of components and their settings. Virt-manager makes running VMs easy enough.

      Not op but new to Linux myself. First I’m hearing of Lutris. If I understand correctly, Wine is used to install/run Windows programs in general, and Lutris does the same but with a specific focus on Windows games?
