Grab your login details from the VPS welcome email, which should arrive in your inbox within 30 seconds of order completion. View this guide to find this email in your Rad Web Hosting account. Login to the cloud panel using the credentials found in the Welcome Email. Navigate to your new VPS using the side menu (Cloud Panel Home -> List VPS -> Click the ">" button to manage VPS). Navigate to the "VPS Configuration" interface (VPS Manager -> Settings -> VPS Configuration). Under the "Boot Order" options, move the "CDROM1" disk to the top position to load this media upon reboot. Reboot the VPS. Open your preferred VNC client and access the VPS console. Once connected, choose the "Install" option from the FreeBSD Installer welcome screen. Now, set your preferred hostname. If you're using the ISO provided by Rad Web Hosting, you'll be starting from the "-bootonly" disk, so you'll want to follow the prompts to complete the installation from the official repository. Alternatively, view this guide for instruction to upload any custom ISO media. Next, configure the DNS resolvers. If unsure, we recommend using "8.8.8.8" and "8.8.4.4" (Google's public DNS). FreeBSD 14 supports ZFS file system, so configure the ZFS pool details. Now, configure the network interface details. This step is also important to enable public network (required for installing the FreeBSD packages). Next, edit the FreeBSD VPS partitions according to your preference. Select your preferred FreeBSD mirror for installation or choose the first option to allow your VPS to find the closest available mirror. Reset your Root password that will be used to access the FreeBSD VPS upon completed install. Configure services to start on VPS boot. Configure system hardening to secure the FreeBSD VPS. Now, click to start the automated installation of FreeBSD 14 system files and services from the repository. Upon completion, optionally open a shell to make any manual configuration changes. Now, head back to the VPS manager interface and update the boot order that was previously modified in Step 6. Set the VPS to boot from the "DISK1" (move "DISK1" to the top position). After configuration, it's now time to reboot the VPS. Once the server has completed the reboot, you can login to your FreeBSD 14 VPS server via SSH using the credentials set during previous steps to access the FreeBSD welcome screen. This concludes the guide. Congratulations on successful launch of your new FreeBSD 14 VPS server! Conclusion You now know how to launch a FreeBSD 14 VPS server using your Rad Web Hosting account!
