kenran_ | I cancelled it because I thought installing and booting NixOS wouldn't be possible, and now ordered a 2nd one after trying it out and getting it to work. | 13:23:14 |
kenran_ | In reply to @linus:schreibt.jetzt that's news to me, but good to know! Oh, don't believe me! It looks like it, but it could well be that there will be an invoice next month :D | 13:23:45 |
kenran_ | I just thought I read it this way. No invoice so far. And if it would cost me the full monthly amount (initial setup was 0 euros), I'd have hoped to be able to use it for the remaining 29 days. | 13:24:27 |
kenran_ | I can tell you for certain in a month :D | 13:24:46 |
@linus:schreibt.jetzt | yeah that might be a special case with the short term cancellation, usually when you cancel the dedicated servers they don't get terminated until the end of the month | 13:26:57 |
@linus:schreibt.jetzt | (the billing month) | 13:27:02 |
kenran_ | It may be because we hadn't yet done anything to it, or as you say, same-day cancellation. | 13:28:04 |
kenran_ | I cancelled it due to the comment at the top of https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-install-scripts/blob/master/hosters/hetzner-dedicated/hetzner-dedicated-wipe-and-install-nixos.sh | 13:28:35 |
kenran_ | line 20 | 13:28:44 |
kenran_ | The kexec way worked out fine for me with slight adaptations. Sadly after trying to port our existing hydra nixos config there, the server refused to start.... now I'll just do it again 🙃 | 13:29:47 |
@linus:schreibt.jetzt | can very much recommend the KVM console, it's very helpful to be able to see the screen of the machine for why it's not booting | 13:30:54 |
