Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

Hi. How you create instances with BIOS and not UEFI? Why BIOS? Routeros CHR and x86 is UEFI friendly for quite sometime. All my installations in Oracle are in UEFI with secure boot disabled. But I also have an x86 installation even with secure boot enabled, without any problem. I've seen this proje...

Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

Hi! Unfortunately I think I'm unable to provide a step-by-step guide, because... there are many steps! Ha! But it's not difficult, I'll describe the general idea. Firstly just a quick tip if you use Oracle Arm VM and it's 200GB storage limit. The routeros boot volume will be 47GB, which is the defau...

Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

I contacted the support about the problem and they are aware of the issue: "We are aware about this issues and look forward to fixing them on upcoming RouterOS versions, unfortunately, I cannot provide a release date now." So we wait to do their magic, as they always do. I guess that this ...

Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

Does it really work to "lazy" umount the root of a running system and overwrite the underlying block device with `dd`ing the CHR image to it? Yes, although I'm no linux expert, this is the first thing I thought back then when I first tried it. But it does work flawlessly, I've done it myr...

Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

I'm sorry that it didn't work for you. But I've done it multiple times and it does work. The video you are referring to, needs an account that CAN upload custom images, but when trial expires, this is not the case. I'm actively using them and their awesome for their free-ness. The only downside is t...

Re: How to install Mikrotik CHR on Oracle Cloud always free instance?

Hi! Custom images are not an option for Oracle Always Free tier after the trial period expires. So you can install the image from inside the vm. If anyone interested, here's a way to do it. 1) Create instance. Under "Image and shape" choose "Rocky Linux 9.1 - Free (x86_64)". Save...
