AstLinux Board Type:

  • “genx86_64-vm” (VGA video console)

VM Guest Recommended Options:

  • Plan: VPS 200 G8
  • Memory: 2 GB

Configuration:

After you created an account, netcup might verify your account via telephone. After that you'll get your creditentials for logging in their Servercontrolpanel. After login you'll need to select your server. In my case a Debian installation was pre-installed.

No go to Media/DVD Drive:

Media

At the bottom of this page you'll find FTP credentials to upload your AstLinux ISO image into the cdrom directory:

FTP Upload

After the upload the ISO will appear in Own DVDs:

Own DVDs

Select it activate DVD boot mode and enter your Servercontrolpanel password.

Harddisk

Now delete the pre-installed harddisk and enter again your Servercontrolpanel password.

then you can start your vServer and start with your normal AstLinux installation. After the AstLinux installation shutdown AstLinux in the ISO installer. Then go to Media/DVD Drive and eject the DVD.

If you have trouble getting an IP-address via DHCP do not fiddle with AstLinux, but instead contact the netcup support via their Customer Control Panel.
