Hetzner EX63 Server Share

Depenguin.me helped me get FreeBSD installed on a Hetzner EX63.

The server is being used to self-compile and enjoy FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT with ZFS.

It's my first time with ZFS! It's almost my first time with FreeBSD!

Does anyone want a MetalVPS EX63 shell account on FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT with ZFS?

Best wishes!

Tom

    Smooth!

    Well, I'm pretty sure that -- sometime -- it won't work. :)

    Anybody want on?

    Thanks!
