I’ve got a new Windows 11 Pro laptop arriving this week that I am going to wipe and install Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS onto. The goal is to have it act as a largely offline and portable second computer for

- tertiary encrypted important file backup
- writing on the road
- PGP tools
- as a terminal for my Start9 node
- for any Bitcoin on-chain related operations with Soarrow (creating, exporting, importing and broadcasting air gapped signed transaction files
- signing transactions that require a USB connection to older signing devices, as I phase those devices out. (Bubbeye Ledger)

Is anyone using a Linux box for their on-chain stuff with a variety of signing devices that could offer any advice on the realities of using such a setup, so I’m not reinventing the wheel or leaning my ladder against the wrong wall? Thanks.

PS I also have a dedicated external SSD the same size as the internal drive that I plan on using in conjunction with a thumb drive that has Clonezilla on it, so I can routinely image the whole primary system for easy restoring from an image file should it ever be necessary.
