    It's not technically pemium or economy, but if it does include direct China routes! So you may be able to consider it 'Premium'. But since it's not part of our Premium network, I don't want to lump them into the same boat.

    You can ping the following address: nat0.hk.pn

    No you can pick USD, EUR, GBP, HKD. If you pay by bank transfer/cheque/cash, you can also pay in CNY.

    dzungbb said: Do you have us location for this specs?

    Not at the moment, but I'm sure there is no shortage of such offers. My company mainly deals with HK and LT based servers. Not so much USA.

    mksh said: Nice! To much RAM but i might bite! :D

    These are KVM based VPS, not OpenVZ. The minimum RAM would be 128MB, and that is almost entirely occupied by the OS. 256 really is really quite small as it is. Even at 256, not all the OS available will install properly. Seems to be fine With CentOS/Ubuntu/Debian though.

    Sorry, i wasn't very clear. I was thinking of paypal and the possibility of maybe avoiding currency conversion. I guess in this case it doesn't matter what i choose since your paypal account probably is in HKD?

    USD and HKD are perfectly fine for us. Our Paypal is multi-currency. We have a lot of expenses in HKD and USD so it really makes no difference which of these currency you use. We have limited expenses in GBP and EUR so they are less favoured, but really you can pick whichever.

    It always creates invoices with HKD currency, no matter what currency I choose before ordering :(

    Because you already have an account. You cannot change the currency on an active account.

  • @randvegeta custom ISO is not possible, is it?

    Technically it is, but for HK$50 /year? I'm not inclined to upload it. You cant upload your own ISO if that's what you mean.

    Yeah, of course not asking you to upload it. Was looking for a way to upload myself but didn't find anything and well, sometimes i am just blind. No big deal if it's not possible. Just thought if it's KVM i might as well do a real install and i am already trying to get my ISO installed using rescue mode anyways. Let's see if this works how i hope it works :P

    The VM is nice so far. Quite responsive for something on the other side of the planet and a very stable ~207ms ping to hetzner. My RAM usage (before i started reinstalling) was at 36MB. No idea what i am going to do with the rest of it. Guess you can never have enough RAM to idle ;)

    Cool saves me some thinking. Just trying to see if i can get GRUB to boot the ISO from a partition first so i could have like my own personal ISO collection but if it does not work out i think this copypizza will be quiete tasty :P

  • @tenpera said:

    Didn't try much yet but at least 25 seems blocked.

    root@rescue:~# nc -vvw30 alt1.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25
    DNS fwd/rev mismatch: alt1.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com != oj-in-f26.1e100.net
    alt1.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [64.233.168.26] 25 (smtp) : Connection timed out
     sent 0, rcvd 0
    

    Well, i am in rescue mode right now but i don't think it makes a difference.

  • Well yeah, you can always mount a loop device, but that's up to you to setup with grub. It's easier to just blow the damn thing away and do it raw from iPXE..

    Yeah, it was kind of a brainfart. Did not think of netboot and thought it would not work because of overwriting the packages... Now i have a shiny full CD installer lying around on my once way to large swap partition. Guess i gotta at least try it. For science and stuff.

    Most of it is no longer swap. Not sure if it makes that any less newb though. 1GB swap is to large for my taste anyways.
