I got an email from BlueVM today about new offers for their KVMs. I've been running FreeBSD 10 on almost all my instances now and its working quite well. I did had some strange networking issues with VirtIO with the NIC but I changed it to Intel and its working really well. Disk based VirtIO works out of the box. Anyways, they have this awesome deal: $3.99 USD (1024 MB Guaranteed RAM 3 CPU Core 1 IPv4 Address 30 GB Disk Space 1 TB Bandwidth) among others for VPS. I thought I'd send this along and if someone is looking to run FreeBSD in the cloud for cheap, this works well. https://bluevm.com/cart.php?gid=42 Note: NetBSD/FreeBSD work out of the box and can see all the cpu cores. OpenBSD however does not. It only sees one cpu. OpenBSD devs werent the most useful to help debug, so I just gave up. I prefer Free/NetBSD anyways... -- | _o _ |_)o_ _ _ |_|_|(_||_|_> | \|/_/_(_) - Lucius.Tel -------------------------------------- ++ The Harvard Law states: Under controlled conditions of light, temperature, ++ ++ humidity, and nutrition, the organism will do as it damn well pleases. ++ ++ -- Larry Wall in <199710161841.LAA13208@wall.org> ++
