I think 8GB is fine. Tell me when you would like to give it a shot. I have no
idea what version of macOS is the minimum needed. You can set it up following

Here's the script I use to bootstrap the worker - note a few requirements in
homebrew in the comments:

Oh man, mac life is hard... just bricked one mini, trying to erase the
hard drive and reinstall the OS :-/
Apparently something went wrong during the erase, and now everything
including El Capitan panics upon booting the installer, probably due to a
kernel bug in com.apple.driver.CoreStorage, which leads to the meltdown
due to this particular evil type of disk corruption.
I wonder which options do I have other than taking the thing apart and
zeroeing the hard drive with Linux - just odered a Thunderbolt cable -
maybe I could get to the drive using Target Disk mode and zero it without
getting it out of the machine...
Gonna try my luck with another mini tomorrow.
