(Quote) Yes, there is no swap file yet on friendly. I doubt it makes a difference. Tomorrow I can try adding the swap file on friendly or disabling the swap file on kc, or both, and rerunning nench. We will see. :)

Today's results from nench, slightly modified to substitute Hetzner ASH for the no-longer available SoftLayer. These tiny Alpine VPSes need a speed test that can run on 256 MB RAM and 1 GB disk. VPS named "friendly" in TierHive'…

@AnthonySmith Yes, thanks! <3 I am just having fun on TierHive trying various, different, new-to-me things in various, different, new-to-me ways. Mostly, right now, I am trying to fit what I am doing g into 1 vCPU, 256 GB RAM, and 1 GB disk -- …

Friendly greetings! Here's the netboot.xyz rescue system loaded at TierHIve: (Image) Here is what is shown after clicking BSD installs . . . some BSDs might seem to be missing? Where is NetBSD? Thanks!

(Quote) Thanks for mentioning NetBSD! I'm still confused about how best to install NetBSD on TierHive. Meanwhile, IPv6 is working on tiny TierHive Alpine VPSes, and, maybe, their small use of IPv6 will help TierHive's IPv6 automation keep …

(Quote) Thanks @AnthonySmith! I replaced[1] nench.sh's no-longer available Softlayer 4 and 6 speed tests with Hetzner in Ashburn. Here is another run: ------------------------------------------------- nench.sh v2019.07.20 -- https://git.io/ne…

Is there a good benchmark script which might run on TierHive's Alpine 3.23 256 MB RAM, 1 GB disk VPS? Perhaps nench ("new bench")? Below are Kansas City TierHive node nench results from running a local copy of nench.sh after apk upd…

My Vint Hill IPv6 also was out. It came back after removing and re-adding the instance's IPv6 address in the Control Panel as advised in the notice seen in the Control Panel[1] for UK instances. friendly:~# dateSun May 17 18:03:55 UTC 2026frie…

More use cases for an existing feature. . . . I like the reinstall page because it shows which OSes are available and which OSes are not available given the existing RAM and disk configuration. (Image) On the Create New VPS page, there is only t…

@cmeerw I don't know much, but it might seem like Tierhive wants to route IPv6 through an intermediate "sentry" VPS that monitors IPv6 spoofing and possibly other behavior ahead of the gateway. On "friendly," my Alpine Tier…

Looks like my sponsored Linveo NetBSD-current VPS has the wapbl(4) journal that @cmeerw mentioned in the BSD thread: netbsd$ cat /etc/fstab# NetBSD /etc/fstab# See /usr/share/examples/fstab/ for more examples.NAME=netbsd-root / ffs …

@sh97 I see this thread has dropped down to second place, so I decided to bounce it. /s I guess you figured out that I haven't been on Discord for a while. I miss talking with you and other guys there. I wish I saw you here at LES more often! I…

(Quote) I seem to remember trying this. If I remember right, something seemed, haha, a little too big to dd onto my minimal TierHive 1 GB virtual disk: # Get NetBSD 11 RC3 qcow image and convert to rawhttps://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/231…

(Quote) Completely missed calculating the costs! :star: I mean, yes, I saw the button to calculate the costs, but a cost already had been shown in the overall recipe listing (see screenshot). I guess the cost changes as the VPS resources are changed…

I must be missing something about the Recipes. . . . I tried three different recipes (Caddy, Grav, and Larvel), but none of them would let me click the final Deploy Recipe button on the recipe configuration, which stays greyed out, even as I triple …

Still trying, every day, to provision an instance in Kansas City, closest POP to me. :) Meanwhile, quite happy with instances in Vint Hill! <3 Edit to add: Southern California or Arizona, some day, maybe? <3 (Image)

Good morning! Instead of waiting for additional TierHive resources to be added in Kansas City, I went ahead with creating a "friendly" TierHive instance in Vint Hill even though Vint Hill is further away from my current location (Sonora, …

I was having a lot of fun earlier today messing with IPv6 configuration, during which I deleted and attempted to recreate my "friendly" VPS in Kansas City. Oopsie! Temporary hold because of capacity limits. . . . I just now tried again, …

Feature Request -- Add NetBSD If it helps, @cmeerw has been making NetBSD qcow2 images. Linveo has been using @cmeerw's images. @linveo I don't think there are official NetBSD qcow images. But @cmeerw's images seem to work for me. …

@AnthonySmith Sorry for maybe too many questions. I have been trying to figure out how to create a new TierHive VPS in a new location from the Control Panel with IPv6 already installed and working inside the VPS. I think I understand that -- all …

TierHive gives one initial free access token to new accounts. I should mention that they gave me a few extra tokens.
