Install Hass.io

As an alternative to using the images which include the HassOS operating system and Docker, it is also possible to run Hass.io on a generic system running another OS of your choice such as Ubuntu, Debian, etc. Because of all the various possible install options, these are more of a community supported installation choice. It follows that the more esoteric of a choice made with the OS, the less a user will find in terms of information and support from the community.
