- There is not specific hardware that is required to run PlagueOS. As a whole, we recommend having at least 8GB of RAM for the guests (VMs), however this is not required. Old hardware can run the base install in an efficient manner. We should note that ARM architectures are not currently supported.

- Certain vendors have unique requirements with UEFI. Void Linux stages the grub binary under the directory `/boot/efi/EFI/Void/grubx64.efi`. For non-compliant vendors that require GRUB to be staged in a standard directory without additional checks, run the following command: `cp /boot/efi/EFI/Void/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/boot/bootx64.efi`

- Can PlagueOS be used as a VM guest? I would like to leverage the many hardening features PlagueOS configures by default.
- Absolutely - although the main limitations include being aware of applications being largely restricted with the mix of MUSL, runit, and xbps packaging.
- Note: If using PlagueOS as a guest while using libvirt qemu, remember to disable/modify the default libvirt qemu networking within the PlagueOS guest itself, as the redundancy interferes with networking and internet access.
