[arch-general] Arch Linux OVH end of support
Hi, Seems that Arch Linux will be unsupported in OVH [1] maybe a big warning should be added on the wiki [2], especially considering that the contract with OVH is usually signed for one year. Greetings. [1]: https://services.ovhcloud.com/optiext/optiextension.dll?ID=JbaJfV6QoXt4c_KtX...

They refer to their bring your own image guide [1]
So Arch can still be used on new machines it seems to me [1] https://docs.ovh.com/gb/en/dedicated/bringyourownimage/

Yes, but unsupported. This is the same as any provider that permits you upload your own images and cannot be in the list of "Providers that offer Arch Linux". :-) Greetings. -- Óscar García Amor | ogarcia at moire.org | http://ogarcia.me

Why does ovh cloud consider that archlinux is not safe to offer support?

You can edit the wiki, why don't you do it directly if you consider it is relevant for everyone? Best, Iyán -- Iyán Méndez Veiga | Physicist GPG: 0x422E3694311E5AC1
