woohoo, my server is going to be replaced soon

ovh made new dedicated server offers. the old offers are gone, here are the most important changes;

• Kimsufi (Isgenug) now with at least 1Gb ram (instead of 256mb), you can get a kimsufi for 25€/month!
• superplans have totally changed;
  • no more superplans with 250gb-hd’s
  • at least 4gb of ram!!
  • nearly the same price

so i just decided to rent a new Superplan2008R instead of my “old” Superplan2008 L – i get 3gb additional ram for 5€/month.

the plan is to copy the whole /boot and /-partitions from the old to the new server (using dd and netcat i think) and after the system is running on the new machine all things will get copied using rsync.

i’ll update here when the server is ready
