How to install a new operating system not listed on CP?

Post by Brandon1 »

"We wouldn't be able to install an unsupported operating system manually for you, we would only be able to provide it for you to be able to install. You may want to post on our forums at http://www.nfoservers.com/forums and a community member, off duty support tech or even John, our CEO, would be able to reply with advice."

How do I install an operating system called pfsense?

I put the pfSense-CE-2.3.4-RELEASE-amd64.iso in the root directory and mounted it to media/iso.

You'd need to mount the ISO that John added to the machine for you, using the virtual DVD drive provided on the Server Control tab, then tell the VDS to boot from that virtual drive. After rebooting, then you can go through the setup process.
