Automatic OS Install

Let your dedicated servers install themselves from Hardware.

- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Debian 12 and 13, AlmaLinux 9 and 10, always from the official mirrors (or your own) over HTTPS
- New orders install by themselves after payment, and the client gets the "server is ready" email
- Clients reinstall from their server panel after they confirm that all data is erased, with a daily limit you choose
- Staff start installs from the machine page and see each install's progress and history
- Fixed IP addresses, host name, timezone, an optional SSH key, and the first disk or RAID 1 on two disks
- With Dedicated Server Power, Nuvabill boots the server from the network and restarts it; without it, your team is emailed when to restart it
- Installs that stop answering fail after a wait time, and your team is emailed the reason
- Safe by design: one-time links that run out within 2 hours, install requests answered only from the machine's own addresses, the password only as a SHA-512 hash in the installer files, and the new password shown in the client area and never emailed

Needs Nuvabill 0.7.0 or newer, a site address with https://, and your own PXE boot network (the guide shows a small dnsmasq and iPXE setup).

One license is for one website. Test sites (localhost, .test, dev. and staging. addresses) are free.
