a mouse/keyboard is like $5 at the local supermarket… you really need one of those… will save a lot of grief with setup and in the future.
Even to update the BIOS, it’s pretty much impossible without a keyboard. Setup for BIOS likewise. You lash out and get an i3 NUC but 4gb RAM and 120gb hdd??? I guess funds are an issue?
Nope, my instructions are no longer valid. There is no USB installer image for the NUC as yet. You have to image the whole SSD with the image or do that through a Linux live distro.
Have a NUC running with Proxmox here as well. Works great. Have a VM running with Ubuntu on which I have installed hass.io. Super easy for having multiple VMs, making snapshots etc.
I’m running Hassio on a NUC as well. I installed Windows 10 pro, containing teamviewer (for remote access), a cloudservice and Virtualbox.
On virtualbox I’m running hassio with the VDI installation file that’s provided on the hassio installation page.
I’m happy with this setup because it’s easy to make backups (just clone the VM and put it in the cloud storage), it’s very fast and it’s easy to install.
