This is my final decision, the process is turtuous...</p> +<p>My requirement as below:</p> +<ol> +<li>abroad provider because they don't have to register..</li> +<li>the the budget's not relax, all I can choosing was in range of $0 - $10.</li> +<li>It can runs Arch linux seamlessly</li> +</ol> +<p>I already eye on one: Linode. But they don't see me... and banned all my gmail account from their service...</p> +<p><img src="https://assets.garhve.com/pictures/screenshots/2022/08/38383267.png" alt="cancelEmail.png" /></p> +<p>Fine! It's your loss!</p> +<p>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.</p> +<p>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..</p> +<p>There is where excellent support comes from. I feedbacked the issue, they immediately help me fixed it. Thanks a lot!</p> +<p>And then, I started installation...</p> +<p>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 <code>systemd-network</code> service which comes with iso. It's very tricky.</p> +<p>It associates another service called <code>systemd-resolve</code>. Network can be reachable if both in proper configuration..</p> +<blockquote> +<p>Start both systemd service, then edit their config..</p> +<ul> +<li>For <code>systemd-network</code>, we can edit <code>/etc/systemd/network/20-*.conf</code></li> +<li>For <code>systemd-resolve</code>, we can link <code>/etc/resolv.conf</code> to <code>/run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf</code></li> +</ul> +</blockquote> +<p>After tricky part done, other steps just as normal as install in local env.</p> +<p>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..</p> +<p>Then, I found Tencent Cloud..</p> +<p>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.</p> +<p>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.</p> +<p>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.</p> +<p><img src="https://assets.garhve.com/pictures/screenshots/2022/08/4068602805.png" alt="tencentArch.png" /></p> +<p>There involves three parts to install arch:</p> +<ul> +<li>Mount ISO to driver and delete other thing</li> +<li>Manually add entry of ArchISO to grub</li> +<li>Static IP is of internal whereas hostkey is public.</li> +</ul> +<p>So now, I got a server that running Arch Linux. Next, buiding a website on it!</p> + +</p> + + + + + </div> + </section> +</body> + +<div class="footer"> +  © garhve +</div> + +</html> |
