    The days is young, and it could still happen, but maybe not.

    wait a minute! what's happening on Wednesday?

    Ryzen upgrade winners are hoping to get upgraded.

    I would have been one of them, except I was skipped... :(

    @smallbibi said: @VirMach said: They're officially KVM Lite but if you requested a custom ISO, we wouldn't say no.

    Maybe this was meant for the original BF plans and not the flash sales though.

    My understanding was it was said regarding the original BF plans which are standard KVM-Lite.

    If nutjob goes about it in the way I described above VirMach support has the option to charge or not charge for the support ticket. If they do not charge him for it, he will be pleasantly surprised and can buy more flash deals with the account credit. Everybody wins :)

    EDIT: @nutjob What specific ISO are you trying to mount?

    Yes I won't be doing that. Do you know how much computing power that $30 would buy? I'll just wait patiently until someone posts an official reply, there are other people who are interested in this question so they'll surely reply. But thank you for introducing my to netboot.xyz.

    The one I want it Alpine Virtual (see bottom of https://alpinelinux.org/downloads/) :

    "Similar to standard. Slimmed down kernel. Optimized for virtual systems."

    Virtio drivers only. I don't know why everyone doesn't offer it, it's perfect for cheap VPSes.

    @nutjob - I can try to install the Alpine 3.1 Standard CD that is in the control panel, and see if there is a way to move to the slimed downed kernel of Alpine 3.1 Virtual. Would that work for you? Or do you need other features that you can only get from the Alpine 3.1 Virtual ISO?

  • pan21pan21 Member

    when I click the VPS Control Panel link
    I got this error

    Invalid vserverid or username

    any idea how to fix this?

    Thanks, that's already available on netboot.xyz, but the ISO I mentioned actually has a different kernel (one of the reasons it uses up much less memory), so I'm sure it would be a rigmarole, like a full body transplant, that'll be the last resort I guess.

    Ok then, we'll just wait and see what VirMach can do for you.
    It does look like an interesting O/S version.

    Haven't tried this but I think it would work.

    Ah, perfect, will give that a go if the ISO mounting doesn't come through, thanks.

  • sammsamm Member

    I've a flash sale deal from 2018 and when I requested to mount a custom ISO few months back, support did it without asking any question. It was ubuntu mini.iso

    Unfortunately all you can do is wait - it happens from time to time and @VirMach staff must fix somethings. If won't be fixed in like 48h then open ticket I guess.

    Just spent a couple hours trying to get netboot.xyz working. I have mounted netboot.xyz on the CDROM, then changed Boot Order to CDROM only. Finally got to the point where I could VNC properly (needed to dig up IE11 in order to use the SolusVM VNC Java applet, as HTML5 VNC client always shows Disconnected).

    Now I am finding out 1.9 GB RAM isn't enough to do installs of latest distros like CentOS 8.5, Debian 11.

    Edit: Looks like Debian 11 text-based installer is working.. can't use Live CD with such low RAM or it can't allocate something. CentOS 8.5 text-based installer ran out of memory though.

    Ok, noob question... So what's with all the buses and trains around here? Is it a captcha reference or what? Thanks

    not a big fan of java, i tried html5 and realvnc but both crash
    and then ultravnc, it work but may lose screen randomly
    is there any other standalone non-java vnc viewer work with @VirMach

    Yes, I came across some KB articles on this. I think VirMach has to update their SSL cert and possibly some config files to allow HTML5 client to work again.

    Stopped working on the new servers but still works fine on the old one I have with them.

    In SolusVM reinstall any Gen2 software (enables AES usually), then VNC when back online, not in the client area. At this point, you should be able to use VNC fine.
    ..
    Except this time it didn't work. SSVNC with no encryption connects fine, though not the best thing to do! I may have just been too quick in testing this for you - it worked fine on BF.

    For the answer to that one, you have to go back to 2018.

    Yes, I have ground bison recipe.
    Bison is another name of buffalo.
    Ground bison tastes like ground beef, but there's better separate between pieces.
