--- Comment #14 from Jamie Landeg-Jones <jamie@catflap.org> ---
(In reply to Billy from comment #11)

Billy, the workaround for vultr is to create a new instance using the vultr
provided FreeBSD pre-installed option.

Once that is done, go in to the config and "attach ISO", then reboot, and t=
hat
lets you do a customised install as normal. This works because vultr have
disabled it in the qemu config for this profile on the host side. (They've =
also
kept the FreeBSD profile with pc-q35 instead of pc-i440fx due to problems)

You'll see the install icon in the webpanel will now be the FreeBSD logo ra=
ther
than the "generic install" icon.

I've checked with Vultr that this won't bite me in the future, and it won't=
 -
it's a known workaround there.

Moving forward, I intend on switching the profiles of all my instances so we
don't hit similar issues in the future.

You can get a machines profile changed without requiring a reinstall by rai=
sing
a ticket with vultr.

If you want, I can email you the contents of my discussion.

Cheers, Jamie
