Can Parrot OS be used reliably as a daily system and a 24/7 KVM/Virt-Manager host?
I want to run Home Assistant OS and Ubuntu Server with Wazuh, Suricata, Zeek, and eventually Elastic Stack with Kibana. I would also use Parrot as my main SOC workstation for investigating alerts, threat hunting, analysing logs and PCAP files, using tools such as Wireshark and Nmap, and performing controlled security tests on my home network.
Does this setup make sense, or would Ubuntu/Debian be a better host with Parrot running as a VM?

Hi, I’m getting the same Ubuntu 26.04 installation failure on two different systems: a Fujitsu ESPRIMO Q958 and a UTM VM on an Apple Silicon MacBook Pro.
The install gets stuck during extraction with:

rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12)

SHA256 of the ISO is correct. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS installs fine on the Fujitsu.
Has anyone seen this with Ubuntu 26.04 LTS?
