Anyone knows how to install stock kernel on new OVH dedis as no tutorial worked for me.
Actual kernel is 3.14.32-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64.

    Are these the servers with the ixgbe ethernet?

    You will have IPMI access if it's a OVH server where you can just mount the OS netinstall/minimal iso and install directly. There might well be a easier way to do this.

    new kernels do not have ixgbe, you will have to build the ixgbe drivers for the kernel after installing it.

    Take a look at http://www.xkyle.com/building-linux-packages-for-kernel-drivers/

    Over IPMI KVM i managed to install correct driver. Everything is up and running under stock kernel.
