This machine is a virtual private server provided by ChunkHost.
It could use a better name. Anyway, here are rebuild instructions:
- create an SSH keypair
- add public key to chunkhost account
- Image the chunk with chosen OS, specify ssh key for root access
- wait a short while, log in using the ssh key you specified
- install the following packages:
apache2.2, bash-completion, openvpn, screen, sudo, vim-nox
- create a normal user account
Things to not do:
- Install a backports kernel. The Xen hypervisor fires up the VM's kernel directly, instead of running a normal boot loader find the virtual disk, try to find a BIOS hard drive, try to parse a partition table, find a filesystem, load a bunch of files from /boot, etc.
