If I will order now a second one, could I get on a second node?
@Amfy possibly, what is the 3rd octet of your IP? 130 or 135 or 200 or 39 or 195?
@AnthonySmith: 130 and on node3
@Amfy, Ah ok I had hoped you were on node 2 or 4, If you open a ticket tomorrow I will be able to sort one out on node 2 for you.
@AnthonySmith: Okay, should I order now and you move me tomorrow or you will make the order on the right node?
Another question: How do you handle "Freedom of Speech?" and the privacy of your customers against lawyers and courts, etc?
@Amfy, I will make the order for you to make sure it goes on the right node.
As for the the other question you are covered by the data protection act and you have freedom of speech the only reason anyone would get involved from this side is if there were complaints against the content and it was deemed to be inappropriate we may ask you to take it down but it would be a case by case basis there is no real over arching answer to that.
Thanks @AnthonySmith for getting me straightened out and sorry for blocking you @Amfy by using up the available slots with those failed orders.
Now I have to see just what I can do with 64mb...
No worries.
Apparently some people think they can run a minecraft server as I just discovered... that did not go down to well
@cleonard; Ah, not really - no problem
You could install a nice wordpress blog? It used here about 30mb of RAM without SWAP.
@AnthonySmith: Haha, some users wanted to run a minecraft server on that? (I tested a few month ago a minecraft server on a 256MB KVM-Server, and it ran perfect. It also run perfect on a vserver-virtualized 256MB Server!)
Could just about run the C++ version if it's still under development, last time I tried it it used ~20MB + 4MB per player, though that was a good few months ago.
So which OS image for this 64mb box? Tried CentOS 5, but yum choked on lack of memory. Looks like Debian 6 as I'm pretty sure the others have larger footprints.
Yes, I know that Debian 5 is smaller, but it is no longer supported. Of course since I'll hardly run anything, I could always just be self supported. Perhaps I'll go that route.
I´m taking Debian 6, as I said ~30mb ram for everything... so I think it's ok
Debian 6.0 is perfectly fine.
Yum will just about get by with 128mb of ram but 256mb is recommended.
Surprised no one has gone with gentoo, arch or slax tbh.
I am a kind of a Debian guy, but might wanna try Arch on it
1 core only.
Also debian on my box eats now 7 MB of RAM only, I don't know if it can be less.
Fair one, you could deffinatley get away with single core in Arch even using pacman, I dont profess to be a Gentoo or Slax fan though so no idea.
Anyway last of he stock added now, once the new E3-1270 nodes reach near full I will probably rlease a few more on those too but that could be a few weeks yet.
@Amfy can you open a ticket please, I am having a mental break down and cant remeber which order was yours from your handle here.
@AnthonySmith: Hehe, nice time you have written that. Some minutes ago I waked up, opened LET and refreshed this thread.
Ticket sent.
Just ordered one, paid for a full year. I'll be moving my IRCd and DNS server (NSD3) from my existing 512MB VPS with InceptionHosting that I got from one of their previous offers.
Also just ordered one. Think it's going to be the monitoring server...
Tip for the ones with this plan, Debian 6 squeeze installed:
1) edit the sources.list to ftp.nl.debian.org, much faster
2) when apt-get update && apt-get upgrade end with an error,
check this link as it fixes the annoying thing:

Just snapped up one of these, feels pretty speedy
Currently running an IRCD/NGINX. Nothing too taxing.
Just finished setting my box up. Only complaint so far is USA based speed is lacking to say the least.
Current setup and initial tests:

There is no order link, you must find it
@sktanmoy https://inceptionhosting.com/clients/cart.php?gid=6 but no one left.
@Amfy, thanks.
If anyone wish to sell, please contact
Got my minimal install down to about 4 megs of ram. Well that and the kernel.
Deactivated the tty1-6 in inittab. I left the hvc0 for emergencies
Running dropbear under xinetd
Replaced rsyslogd with the old school syslogd
Left cron there
Now do we really need three udevd instances running? Guessing that it's one parent and two children, but I really don't know much about udevd. I guess it's time to learn something...
Remove xinetd and install inetd and you can get some more free ram
