GuixSD on servers… has someone used Hetzner dedicated servers before?

[ng0]

Hi,

later this year (once I have mailman functional) I want to add an
dedicated server from Hetzner (http://hetzner.deto) my network.

With IN-Berlin I have this out-of-console requirement for agetty.

Does someone know what special requirement, if at all, Hetzner has?
If no one knows it, I'll make a customer inquiry to check it.


As they offer Debian among other systems, I'd take the Borg way with
Debian as documented before on this list.

"We are the Guix. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will
be added to our own. Resistance is futile."

dedicated server from Hetzer (http://hetzner.de) to my network.

With IN-Berlin I have this out-of-band console requirement, specific agetty
settings.

I have a dedicated server from Hetzner and don't think they have any
special requirements. They offer VNC and a SSH-able (Debian) rescue
image. If I were to install GuixSD on it*, I would probably install the
binary inside the rescue image and do `guix system init` from there.

*because I haven't been able to package Ganeti for Guix yet**
** mostly due to https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/3728
