If you get to the point where you've got something that could be turned 
into a Debian version of 
https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-20-04-lts/ 
that'd be great - either the whole new page or just a set of notes that 
someone could add some text around.

Also (not necessarily the same page) it'd be good to have a Tirex 
version of those notes for https://switch2osm.org too.  The source for 
the pages is over at https://github.com/switch2osm/switch2osm.github.io .
