Yeah, KC seems to provision for me as well. Got one, deleted it, made another. All from my phone. Got in by ssh with ConnectBot ssh app. Thanks Ant!

@cmeerw In the Rescue System tab on my TierHive test VPS, I found: Grml 2025.08 Netboot XYZ (requires DHCP server, which I think is available) OpenBSD 7.8 RescaTuz 0.74 Super Gub 2 Disk System Rescue CD 12.02 May I please ask what procedure you f…

@AnthonySmith Another question, if I may, please: I have tried for several days, and again just now, to create a TierHive VPS instance in Kansas City, which is closer to me than Vint Hill. Each time, I receive this error: (Quote) Of course, Vint H…

(Quote) Yesterday evening I shut down my test VPS and recorded my Token balance. I had planned to check the token balance again later today, after 24 hours. Somehow, sorry, I had been under the impression that the expected result was zero descrease…

I might try Tinyproxy, which I have used previously and really like because of its capability to log seemingly everything. In addition to quickly accessing the site I want, Tinyproxy shows me what conceivably might be everything else my computer sen…

My sponsored Linveo VPS continues to compile NetBSD-current every few days. No issues, certainly no problems! I like Linveo so much that I actually bought and continue to pay for two additional VPSes from them, one for FreeBSD-current and another f…

Logged in successfully! https://control.tierhive.com/subnet-config still says there is a 10.x.x.x/24 subnet. Successfully added IPv6/64! @AnthonySmith Might take me a day or two to attempt the next step since I have a BSD thingy I want to try fir…

Thanks, Ant! Sounds like fun! :)

(Quote) I just found oasis yesterday. Oasis seems possibly a little different than Alpine: even smaller, statically linked, has its own compiler project (not fully used for everything yet), more? Alpine has been a lot of fun for me!

Don't know if it's at all helpful, or not, but . . . email received! :)

(Quote) Hi! Thanks for the testing offer! To me, the ideal test might be a server which I could continue using, while paying monthly. The 2699 pricing, (Quote) requires greater funding that I prefer to allocate. As mentioned above, I hoped for ev…

@Cloudnium_Tang Friendly Greetings! Any chance you might want to lend me free of charge one or two of these servers for a few days or a little more, for testing? For me, ongoing, I might prefer the lowest price server you can do. which I guess mig…

I read a few days ago that famous FreeBSD contributor cperciva used NetBSD in 2010 on AWS! (Quote) * Original source * HN discussion Wanna try NetBSD for free? Please check this thread's OP's "How to Apply" section. Thanks to …

Wondering whether it possibly could be the same friend in both pictures? Always nice to see you and your friends! 😀

Over the last few days, peeking at the cdefs.h files in OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and NetBSD. Skimming little bits here and there through the history of compilers, * Bell Labs' cc and pcc, * pcc as formerly included within OpenBSD and NetBSD base plu…

@cmeerw Thanks for making these NetBSD qcow2 images available! <3

There seems to be a new version of the venerable pcc compiler available on Github at https://github.com/PortableCC. The new pcc seems to bootstrap successfully on NetBSD-current. The Github pcc sources were compiled first using NetBSD's native…

(Quote) Read that! Have to try it. Will report back, eventually. . . . Thanks very much @cmeerw and @Crab! <3 <3

(Quote) Thanks! Will check. (Quote) Recently there was a long thread about this on the netbsd-users mailing list. The OP there also has a couple of blog posts. https://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-users/2026/03/05/msg033961.html https://omaera.or…

(Quote) @qps Maybe my DM sent on January 19 somehow went astray? Sorry, I don't seem to find a response. Thanks! Best wishes!

@cmeerw @Crab If / when you guys have time, maybe we might look a little further into sysctl.conf network adjustments and related items on hlcs? Of course, @cmeerw already has done what seems like a great job configuring hlcs' sysctl.conf. Bu…

Good morning! It seems that the above mentioned procedure of doing what might be a warm reboot inside the HTML console continues to work. OpenBSD on a Linveo Intel KVM VPS still doesn't seem to reboot successfully when the reboot is initiated …

OpenBSD's man 8 boot_amd64 at https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-5.9/boot_amd64.8 makes a distinction between cold and warm starts. If I understand right, cold starts perform a power-on self test (POST) and then load the machine code boot program …

Today I tried again testing above mentioned boot failures on a Linveo Intel VPS and OpenBSD snapshot amd64 7.9-beta. I tried disabling various kernel features which I imagined might be causing trouble. I tried both the bsd and bsd.rd kernels. Afte…

Good morning! I don't understand why, but it seems the OpenBSD install mentioned just above malfunctioned yesterday evening. I couldn't log in any more. This morning, the above reported 7.9-beta amd64 ISO install no longer worked. On am…
