I have an old Dell TB16 dock lying around that I don’t use anymore. Does anyone know if it’s possible to install Linux on this thing? It’d be nice to use it as a server, since it’s got a reasonably small form factor and already has a gigabit ethernet port.

I found the mainboard here: https://www.radwell.com/Buy/DELL/DELL/AAD30 LA-C602P

    No, a dock isnt a computer. It doesn’t have ram, doesn’t have a CPU in the sense of a general computation device. While it might have an MCU and with a lot of reverse engineering I don’t doubt you could run Doom on it, it isn’t a computer.
