Prepare nginx for NextCloud. This was the most difficult part for me, as it was a new frontier.
source: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/13/admin_manual/installation/nginx.html
Create your website config:
root@b3:~# cd /etc/nginx/sites-available
root@b@:~# nano cloud.example.com
Off course you ...

Now that we have everything running, let's do some configuring:

Configure PHP:
You have been adding modules to php in previous post so let's restart (it probably does that automatically, but I want to make sure)
root@b3:~# systemctl restart php7.0-fpm
source: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/12 ...

The actual installation of everything needed for NextCloud

Install certbot - Let's encrypt (https://letsencrypt.org/)
If you're going to use another CA, or you already have your SSL-certs, you can skip this. Either way it's strongly recommended to use SSL (httpS) nowadays.
Edit sources.list
root ...

Let's set some fixed IP-addresses.
I prefer to do this one by one. So leave at least one of both interfaces in dhcp mode untill you are sure the config from the second network card is completely functional.

First edit /etc/network/interfaces
Pay special attention to the "source" line, there's an ...

In addition to the fresh install of my B3 I have chosen to put /home underneath / and no longer in a dedicated partition as my /home will stay rather small, it's not that I'm using my B3 as my desktop.

The "large" partition (originally /home) has been renamed /data
To do so:
root@b3:~# mkdir /data ...

I just finished setting up NextCloud on my freshly installed B3

I chose NextCloud in favor of OwnCloud, if you prefer OwnCloud you can still use this How-To besides some details as it's basically the same software. I would say read up on ...

It would be nice to have that in the wiki

That page was started few years ago due to this topic:

Don't know why it never made to the WiKi, I guess lack of time is one of them, but there's plenty of info to gather around the forum ...

To finalize this thread, hereby a final resume:

First prepare your USB key properly => yes it needs a partition table, and yes it can be done with standard Windows tools too. See a few posts earlier: http://forum.excito.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6139#p28511

Boot in rescue mode (usb key plugged in ...

Another thing is that the uBoot environment loads your kernel with a command line that sets root at /dev/sda1. You will need to change that by either:
changing the command line parameters within the uBoot environment itself (requires serial connection to your B3)
compiling a fixed command line ...

I see.... That would make sense.

so /boot in ext3
/ in ext4
/home in ext4

should do the trick also?

and increase / size to 20GiB...

I can still start over from scratch, I'm getting used to atm :-)
Just did some basic config and installed some additional packages as ddclient etc... nothing I can ...

Thx MouettE for the update!

I did everything all over as per your recommendations and got it working now (after a 2nd try, see below why).
