This is my final decision, the process is turtuous... - -My requirement as below: - -1. abroad provider because they don't have to register.. -2. the the budget's not relax, all I can choosing was in range of $0 - $10. -3. It can runs Arch linux seamlessly - -I already eye on one: Linode. But they don't see me... and banned all my gmail account from their service... - - - -Fine! It's your loss! - -My second thought was hostkey, They got excellent support, and cheapest price comparing with other service me compared. So be it. I paid €3 to get one. - -The server was great at first. But when it comes to custom OS installation because I want my server runs Arch linux, things got frustrating. The server supports me mount custom OS installer from their library, but even it shows me that mounted successfully, i still can't boot from ISO, not saying start installation.. - -There is where excellent support comes from. I feedbacked the issue, they immediately help me fixed it. Thanks a lot! - -And then, I started installation... - -I never tried install a arch linux into server. So when it has not network. I totally fucked up, I googled and googled. Finally I found that in official wiki, this issue has a solution. The solution tells me that if we had static IP, we can get network through `systemd-network` service which comes with iso. It's very tricky. - -It associates another service called `systemd-resolve`. Network can be reachable if both in proper configuration.. - -> Start both systemd service, then edit their config.. -> -> - For `systemd-network`, we can edit `/etc/systemd/network/20-*.conf` -> - For `systemd-resolve`, we can link `/etc/resolv.conf` to `/run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf` - -After tricky part done, other steps just as normal as install in local env. - -I struggled and successfully installed arch linux on my server, but then i encountered night traffic jam.. No matter how hard I try, I just can't ssh into my server. That's unacceptable! I immediately start looking for other provider.. - -Then, I found Tencent Cloud.. - -I already have one server of it, based on Shanghai. It is good, but building a website in it would require me to register, so I never consider using it. - -I rent a server that based on Hong Kong, cost me ¥42 per month. But this has really good quality. even now at 2:05am when I'm writing this essay. It still performs stable connection. - -First thing I got hands on Tencent Hong Kong server, I changed OS to arch linux, just as before. But Tencent doesn't provide arch linux ISO, so i found some blogs on internet to know how to do it. And I succeed. - - - -There involves three parts to install arch: - -- Mount ISO to driver and delete other thing -- Manually add entry of ArchISO to grub -- Static IP is of internal whereas hostkey is public. - -So now, I got a server that running Arch Linux. Next, buiding a website on it! |
