The only painful parts were:
- realizing I needed to go manually unmount the iso in the vultr control panel, since rebooting would otherwise just take me back to the live cd.
- needing to host the iso somewhere so I could point vultr at it, not particularly hard, but annoying even for someone like me who's already used to configuring nginx.
I hope more people give dragonfly a chance, hammer seems to me the way filesystems should be. If you just want to try it out, there's a coupon code for $20 dollars of credit floating around for vultr.
I'm going to try moving the stuff currently hosted on a debian box over to it and see how that experience goes. If everything goes well, I'll see if I can get it working well on my laptop and try to switch over. I'd like to eventually be able to use hammer snapshots as a backup method rather than any specific program.
edit: Oh, I also plan on running a tor relay on the vps.
Thanks, I now have $27 in credit! I should have grabbed your referral ID. I'm currently installing Debian to test a peculiar configuration but I will definitely use this to have a play with some BSDs.
