Optional, modify netplan to set IPv4 static.

add gateway4 and your IPv4 to addresses
Then run
netplan apply

Configure Storage
You can just run with the defaults, however running a filesystem in a filesystem is costing performance.
I setup my dedi at OVH with 50GB for the OS itself and left the rest unpartitioned.
sudo parted /dev/sda mkpart zfs-pool 103448576s 2056573575s sudo parted /dev/sdb mkpart zfs-pool 103448576s 2056573575s sudo zpool create -f -o feature@encryption=enabled -O encryption=aes-256-gcm -O keylocation=prompt -O keyformat=passphrase tank mirror /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb4
This will setup a 1TB big, ZFS, mirrored and encrypted volume.
Configure Incus
incus admin init
Launch your first VM
incus launch images:alpine/3.23/cloud test --device root,size=50GiB --config limits.cpu=2 --config limits.memory=4096MiB --vm
