hey guys,

I've managed to get alpine working on Google Compute Engine (with the management features installed n all) I was wondering if anyone here would be interested. I have a channel on youtube and I'm thinking of doing a whole series on Alpine Linux covering topics like
- installing alpine
- setting up an SDK
- creating alpine packages
- setting up a private alpine repository
- running alpine on Google Cloud
- deploying apps using alpine

Yes very interested! I'm just going down the route now. But any general tips or gotchas? Did you use lvm? Is grub mandatory? list of necessary stuff to install? I'm looking at the google tutorial on importing images and it seems to be fairly straightforward, when reading but often there are unpredictable hurdles. Thanks for any suggestions.
