Ramnode KVM VPS Host installed with Windows 2008R2 System

Old left at the beginning of the month Ramnode New Year's promotional campaign to purchase the one-month Ramnode KVM 512MB program and then also wrote a KVM program evaluation article (here), personally think Ramnode VPS host stability is still relatively good, and if there are individual small blog to choose an annual payment scheme is relatively high cost. One of the KVM architecture VPS schemes comes with a Windows 2008r2 system version, which may be needed for friends who have a need for Windows desktop Environment Action projects.

Before writing this article, Lao Zuo also first looked over the KVM environment can install other versions of Windows custom ISO environment by other means, but after all, when customizing the installation, version copyright issues are not supported by all businesses and may be at risk of being blocked, So in this article, the use of its Ramnode business from the Windows system environment should be not much problem.

In this article, the old left uses the standard KVM SSD scheme to pay 5 dollars a month, memory is 512MB, hard disk 10GB SSD, if we have no machine can choose to buy.

The code is as follows	Copy Code

First, set Ramnode driver options and Mount settings

Login to the SOLUSVM panel, then locate our current KVM VPS host, see the above image in the setup options, first set the order of the boot sequence is cdrom and hard DISK, and network card for Intel pro/1000, all others are by default do not move , the picture above has a disk driver my hand accidentally wrong, should be the default IDE way, here is not to change the diagram, because after the installation after the problem to find the problem.

Then select the Windows Server 2008 R2 system in the CDROM option and click Mount Mount.

Second, restart Ramnode VPS Mount effective

After the boot sequence and mount system, we click Reboot to reboot the VPS slightly longer than the Linux system reboot time.

Third, VNC link ramnode Remote Desktop configuration environment

After we reboot, this step starts to be critical, we need to telnet to the desktop to configure the Windows2008 system, which uses VNC links, also in the SOLUSVM panel.

Here are 3 options to login VNC, previously we saw only a Java environment, when most of the computer has not installed the Java environment components, so more trouble, here we can have more than one option, it is much more convenient.

Here we choose to adopt HTML5 VNC CLIENT SSL mode.

Four, enter the RAMNODE option Windows System mode

The same step is more critical, we need to let the system load into the system to jump directly to the mount letter of the Windows system to install it, there are several key I need to mention, at least I did so.

When I first entered VNC, I saw this interface, pressed Ctrl+d, and then entered the initialization to let us choose to mount it.

We'll see this in the deployment process, where it's critical to press any key immediately (no one will ask what is any key?). Just click a 1 to be able to jump to load mount disk, if you do not press the wait automatically he will infinite loop to the above step.

Are you happy to see such an interface? If it was not possible to continue.

Ramnode Installation Windows2008 setup options

As long as the implementation of the above interface, the following are visual operations, it should not be difficult?

Click the Install Now button. Because this is SSD solid state drive, so the installation system speed is much faster than ordinary.

Select the system version and click Next.

Here we choose Custom Installation method.

We can see the letter, think it's simple? In fact, the default is not installed, we need to select the letter 1, and then format. Click the driver Options option, and then delete the partition and format according to the operation before you can continue the installation.

Driver Options (Advanced)-Del-new-format.

Then we can continue to install the next system by selecting the formatted disk character.

See this interface and happy many, should we have installed the system, the back is waiting, because it is SSD hard, faster than the general will be better.

VI, RAMNODE installation Windows2008 basic configuration

As long as you can complete the above process, the other is relatively simple, is just some configuration environment, set account password, in fact, the old left is also relatively strange, why in the background have mentioned to prepare their own serial number, here in the installation of the time did not mention it, and I was installed before the article was able to use, is there any skill in?

The system will automatically reboot during the installation, we wait.

This is a new system login password, this we will certainly?

Did we see the table, very handsome? But now still not online, we can see the lower right corner of the cable connection is wrong, we need to configure the network card and IP to be able to access the Internet.

VII, ramnode Windows2008 Configure IP and gateway and DNS

The default installation of 2008 system is not able to access the Internet, we need to configure their own IP and gateway.

Direct look at the map, IP address is our current VPS IP, the gateway to the IP last c segment to 1, all the same, DNS with 8 8 8 8 and 8 8 4 4. Then we can see the lower right corner can be linked to the link, this time you can surf the Internet.

This is not basic to do, we if some friends in need of Windows environment to operate the project should still be.

Finally, according to the above detailed steps of the old left already in the Ramnode KVM VPS host system with the WINDOWS2008 system, where the direct use of VNC link past, as if according to netizens mentioned not to 3389 remote logins, specifically I did not test, After all, this article has been tossing for too long, there is time to continue to toss, if you have played can tell if you can.

Because we are in the installation of WIN2008 environment is to use the Cdroom letter first, here we have installed to adjust back, set hard disk priority, and then restart reboot current Ramnode VPS host, Let's go to VNC. Log on to the Windows system and you can see the system desktop directly.

Almost forget the last sentence, the above article only represents the current operating process of the old left, can not represent permanent and effective, if there are users to refer to the article and encountered problems, if there are problems can be discussed in the group Exchange.
