(Quote) Not necessarily. Try partitioning the disk, so that you have 1 big partition (which will get deleted while you install), and a smaller ~4GB partition at the end where you'll download the ISO to. So you'll have VDA1 which will be 20GB or so…

(Quote) Which 'stage' are you getting the error? Is it the initial Linux command-line where it says "cannot find file /tmp/ ... "? Or is it aftre you connect with 'vnc', and you get the error that the SEABIOS cannot boot from cdrom? If it…

(Quote) I suggest WSL - You can run qemu (slow mode) without tweaks; and there are guides to enable "qemu-kvm" in WSL2 if you do this often enough. All commands are 'as root' - prepend 'sudo' or 'sudo bash' first * Make space for the d…

(Quote) My go-to for these systems is * Install locally using my own qemu instance , targeting a small (eg, 2GB disk ) * Boot the VPS into rescue mode * Push the image directly unto /dev/vda (curl -o /dev/vda ) * Reboot into the image * use 'growp…

Damn! This is a very special, advanced user only Flash Special - I wonder if that template is still going to enable CPU passthrough (Image)

Is there a betting pool going on when the last of the Jan4 vintage will be provisioned?

(Quote) their system just wants to find friends, friends who send dirty twisted packets .. maybe they want to share shell access with their newfound friends? ;)

Is "migrating flash sales" a flaggable offense? I want to diversity my portfolio, I missed Miami and Denver .. Or maybe just wait for the EPYC flash sales and hope some of them complete my tour of the US?

(Quote) 222 is plenty enough for a wireguard proxy Just use dropbear instead of openssh, and there's some systemd stuff that needs tweaking over time.

My only regret is missing JP ... I still don't have an VPS in Asia .

YAY!!! @Virmach gave me the 2.22 thing, and was more generous in memory !!! I don't even need to break out my ultra-low-memory debian image
-
2 cores, 222MB/ram , 22GB SSD, 2TB bw, 2.22 ? The 222MB would make the rest less useful ...

(Quote) Backblaze (Computer) would be economical if you run a Windows VM and use 'virtio-fs' to map the host drive into the VM - although the shipped hard drive recovery was at 8TB last I looked.

Has anyone noticed that the initial disks images for Virmach VM's contain a pre-existing image? * Select 'Install Later' when purchased * Boot into Rescue instead of installing an O/S * Examine /dev/vda and notice there's data: "Jun 9 01:08…

I'm curious ... How does one hit 20TB of transfer in a month without violating the other constraints on IOPS?
-
(Quote) Port 22 would be another great option too for extra charges! Pay extra to have bogus logins non-stop; or move your SSH port to something civilized ;)
-
(Quote) Is your compression that great? Or do you just not have the Gigabytes of pushups? Or that no one wants to see pushup 555 of 1000 when they can just see the first 2 on loop?
-
(Quote) Or, we can keep commenting, and delay provisioning for everyone else... That would give those of us who have been provisioned less CPU stealing, clear networks, and faster uncontended disk access. This comment is a 12 hour gift to myself ;)
-
(Quote) I suggest "countries of the world" .. Plenty to go before you run out, and if you do, you can always fund some revolution somewhere to make more! Besides, there's something compelling about nuking "belgium"

AssuredWasteful-VM This is the ABSOLUTE BEST VM Name I've gotten from VirMach, EVER

Is the Ryzen divided by 3 or 4 ? Eg, at what number of vcores can a single threaded process taking nearly 100% of the cpu sustained be considered acceptible in the AUP?
-
So, what was the actual URL (thanks @jab for the laugh, and even the version sans 'not' showed I wasn't creative enough. What sort of broken "deals" were missed?
-
From a cost-centric perspective, it really seems wasteful to be paying for the IPV4 Especially when all the IPV4 is good for is creating SSH spam in the logs.

(Quote) Are dot-wtf good for anything other than "Tasting"? Seems that it's $30 after the first year, if you were trying to build a brand/community
-
(Quote) I guess you recancelled the service before cancellation was broken?
-
@VirMach "Cancel With Transfer" is confusing. * The services do not show as cancelled in the panel, and they show a pending invoice * Will the pending invoice be automatically paid (!?!) on the due date ? * Cancel with Transfer tickets fo…
-
I feel like I've done my part to increase @VirMach 's ticket burden. Just FYI, the transfer ticket email * Does not list the fee for transfer request * Links to a defunct Fee Schedule page: https://virmach.com/terms-conditions/#tab2

The only thing that's tough with the AMS test VM is that either my high activity workload wasn't as bad as I thought, or it's not actually suspending/warning for overuse..
-
Are previous year's BF eligible or recommended to transfer ? I have a BF-SPECIAL-2020 ($8y) and PRO+ Lite-2017 ($14/y) both in Frankfurt Given the drama with FF, these may be better returned to the bits from which they came...

(Quote) More information please ? Link? Citation? Even ancient OpenVPN with, say, a single TCP stream wouldn't give a lot of visibility into "opening/closing connections" There's a single long running connection with bursts of data - bu…
