Run a debian VM and install docker for running frigate. There is no reason to try and avoid layering docker on the VM. It doesn't introduce any overhead and keeps the OS clean. It also makes upgrades to frigate painless. |

So I'm running HassOS as a VM on top of FreeBSD bhyve. I have a ZFS RAIDZ2 setup as the storage, and I was thinking I'd just spin up another VM with plenty of storage for saved videos to install Frigate on and test it, before buying a Coral TPU module and using PCIe Passthrough to the VM. Possibly buy a Quadro P400 in the future and pass that through as well for NVENC/NVDEC functionality, but only if I need.
However, from what I'm seeing there's really only Docker image support to install, and there doesn't seem to be much in the way of any kind of installation documentation around 'bare metal' installs. I do see talk of a Frigate Proxy AddOn to use Frigate on a separate instance/container, which is what I figure I'll use, as well as install MQTT in HA and use that for the MQTT requirements.
So, to test out if this is the NVR system I want, how would I best go about a separate instance? Preferably without having to nest docker within that.
