Best "easy" distro to start with lxd on raspberry pi 3B+

[ZipiZap_Zap]

Hi all

Anyone knows if there currently a ubuntu/rasbian/other OS distribution for raspberry-pi 3b+, that comes with LXD out-of-the-box (or easy to pos-install)?

Sorry if this query is out of scope for this forum - please let me know in such case

You can try Ubuntu Core, which has images specifically for the RPI 2/3,
https://www.ubuntu.com/download/iot/raspberry-pi-2-3

And you can use LXD on Ubuntu Core:

Ubuntu Core 16.04 LTS as a Host OS for LXD on x86-64 servers?

Ubuntu Core seems as though it would be a very good and very secure host OS for LXD. I understand that Core’s focus is on IoT devices, but all the security, read only focus and application isolation is making me wonder if maybe Ubuntu Core could be a good host OS for LXD, especially since LXD is one of the available snappy packages. But finding the proper iso download to install Ubuntu Core on standard x86-64 servers is not easy. It almost seems as though Core may not be available for x86-64 se…

Thanks, for the indication

When I latter saw to download ubuntu core, it asks to register in a webpage, it made me have crossed-feelings… I’ll take note in any case

This should be the page you are referring to,
https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/raspberry-pi-2-3

It asks you to use your Ubuntu Single-Sign On (SSO) (i.e. your Launchpad.net) account as an anchor point to get safely your SSH public key that you have put there. Because with Ubuntu Core you primarily connect remotely using SSH.

In addition, Ubuntu Core uses snaps, so the account is also your account for the Snap Store.
