In case anyone reads this thread - Slicehost measured up to all the hype
given it. It is fantastic. I got my slice yesterday evening and by the
next morning my complete site is up and running from start to finish.
It was not as difficult as I thought it would be.
Also, the admins have a chat
I am now a new member of Slicehost. Thanks everyone for assisting me
here.

No. You may have to adjust a few symlinks, but that's not hard and

For clarification the bare bones applies to "all" slices but the list of

Okay I received my answer:

As previously stated, our images are bare bones installations and do not
come with many common applications such as Apache, MySQL and PHP
pre-installed.
I have attached a list of the installed packages on a default slice.

Not quite. SSH is there, and I seem to remember that Apache is as well.
I think Ruby is also, but I use Ruby EE for production hosting, which is
a relatively simple installation.

Okay I did some more research into slicehost and spoke with people
regarding that site:
The good news is they have a good article foundation for setting up
slices.
However, each slice (vps) is bare bones and has to be setup completely
from scratch. This means that they have absolutely nothin

I would also look at mosso or rackspacecloud. Their price as I said before
is a bit more competitive then their own Slicehost.

And before I forget, when you sign up for a VPS you are assuming FOR
YOURSELF the responsability of managing your own install. Unless
you're hosting with a company that provides application installation
support (like EngineYard) the folks from your hosting service are not
likely to help you to set
Want a nice VPS?
Go for slicehost or linode, you won't regret it. Also, try to use
Ubuntu, as there's plenty of material about setting up an environment
to deploy RoR applications, it's also dead easy to manage and

Hi,
I just noticed your post. I made a post today that you may find quite
relevant.

My local configuration is similar to yours. I've b
I have a virtual server with slicehost. They are quite good so far for what
I need and keeps the cost low. I would also look at mosso, who own slicehost
and offers a pay as you go version which works out cheaper.

Update:
I did find one review site which is pretty solid:
http://www.webhostingjury.com/
It actually listed my current provider #5 which is good but I can
definitely confirm that hostgator does not ruby on rails in their
mindset...
I'm currently talking to Lunarpages to see what type of VPS
