I found this article and I realized that I also installed gentoo on the hetzner cloud on one of these 2 core arm64 vservers. --Alexander-n8hgeg5e (talk) 05:28, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Feel free to complete the page. Did you use IPv4 or genkernel? Is jitterentropy not working either (I think I misconfigured the kernel)? --Lars Hint (talk) 07:14, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Or did I misunderstand something and you installed Gentoo on something else and the installation process was the same? :) --Lars Hint (talk) 11:32, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

No you understood me correctly, I'm just a bit unresponsive sometimes. I installed it on one of these new arm64 v-servers, the small one with 4G ram.

Usually I use my self made kernel ebuild but this time I tried genkernel. I don't remember whether I used a config from /proc/config.gz as a base.

It seems I did something completely different and I can only assume that the file

in /etc/kernels/kernel-config-6.6.13-gentoo-arm64 is my kernel config.

Jitterentropy is a module in my config, but not loaded.

CONFIG_CRYPTO_JITTERENTROPY=m

If I load it with (is this the right one?): modprobe jitterentropy_rng

Then:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'jitterentropy_rng': Bad address

For the network I configured both IPV4 and IPV6.

The network setting was the part that I initially had no clue about how to do it.

Then I found the network settings on the preinstalled system and discovered that they are mostly static.

I configured IPv4 and IPv6. Essentially only the first 2 lines differ from your config:

modules="dhclient"

config_enp1s0="dhcp

2a01:4f8:_:_::1/64"

routes_enp1s0="default via fe80::1"

dns_servers_enp1s0="2a01:4ff:ff00::add:1 2a01:4ff:ff00::add:2"

Then I installed wireguard on the system.
