New FOSSVPS Location -- Bucharest Hosteroid
- CPU E5-2690 v4
- 256 GB
- 3.6 TiB SSD RAID 10
- Six available IPv4 addresses!
- IPv6/48, so each VPS can have a /64!
Soon! Not yet quite ready for free VPS requests. Please help answer the following questions:
- How should we set up the node to deliver the best user experience while staying fully open source?
- Is it okay to upgrade the node to Debian sid?
- Does anyone want to join FOSSVPS volunteer staff?
- Does anyone want to contribute toward the costs of formal registration for FOSSVPS?
- Does anyone want to contribute server hardware which FOSSVPS can colo?
Thanks Hosteroid!

Hi Tom,
Because of the way you are growing I would suggest going over to Proxmox would make your job much easier. You are also much more likely (I would volunteer) to get more support / help.
Either way keep up the great work.
Virmach is NOT worth the risk.
@Not_Oles , isn't it dispersive to open a thread for each location?
