Alpine is a really nice, really light Linux distribution that is often use as the base for a lot of containerized applications. This video demonstrates how to create an appliance-like VM with a minimal Alpine install to run Minio from boot.
All of the steps aside from running the start up command using cron are in the documentation below. It is truly very simple to get working in Alpine if you just need something simple to act as an S3 object store with HTTP/HTTPS file sharing capabilities.
A couple of mistakes in the videos are there because by copying the commands from the documentation I forgot to adjust the start up and cron commands to the directory we gave it. This is why at minute 5:50 I am checking the wrong directory and the new directory is shown (miniodata vs minio). Overall it is pretty simple and perhaps the mkdir command can be skipped depending on your preference.
